console package deals .com STAY AWAY

I Always Use The Net To Do All Of My Shopping, However Today I Have Learned A Valuable Lesson, If It Looks To Good To Be True Then It Probably Is. I Googled Nintendo Wii And This Site Came Up Console Packages Deals.com I Found A Wii For £128.99 And Placed An Order. The Message Came Back That The Order Had Been Declined, 5 Min's Later I Received An Email Stating That My Credit Card Was Being Processed. So I Decided To Email The Company To See What Was Going On, None Of The 5 Email Addresses Worked.
I Called The Bank Straight Away And Cancelled My Credit Card.
Please, Please If You Come Across This Site Please Stay Away. Dont Get Caught Up Looking For A Bargin Like I Did.

A Wii can't even be found for the full retail price, anyone thinking they can get one at £128.99 is a fool.

The other thread has a post from someone who's card details had been stolen and used to setup the following site. This gave me the idea to check the registrant for consolepackagedeals and give him a call. Seems he'd tried to use one of the sites in question and got the same failed order scenario and so I explained what had happened and advised him to cancel his card with his bank.

thanks to this site i have just been on console packages and found 1 wii for 128 and thought something wrong here so i checked on here first. i also know someone that was scammed out of a lot of money by ordering a bulk of nintendo wiis from this site globalgamestore.com so watch out for this too.
thanks again

Sorry to say, but I have fallen into the same trap.

Tried to post an order to this site 5 times, each time getting a message saying that my order could not be processed. Today got 5 emails thanking me for my orders.

Does anyone know whether money has been taken based on orders placed or are they after bank account details to use in the future ???

I can't believe it, I work in IT and place lots of orders online with no problems, I have now got to try and protect my account from fraud !!!

cancell your card straight away they will take money a few days later and transfer it via western union

Why not use websites like GAME, play.com, or have a look in the game shops like gamestation or GAME
