WARNING Scam FB Clarks Shoes Ad ??

Hi, I am just warning anyone who has spotted the Clarks Shoes ad which is doing the rounds on Facebook.
(I note you have a similar link re ECCO shoes)
I ordered a couple of pairs of shoes there this week, thinking I was ordering from Clarks - no !
The website link https://www.clarkseuoutlet.com/ takes you to an extensive range of Clarks Shoes, but alarm bells first rang when I couldn't pay with PayPal.
Anyway I reluctantly paid online, and immediately had a bounceback message for confirmation.
Later that day my credit card company called me. I called them back (just to be sure), and was told it appeared to be a "car parts" company in China my pending payment was for!!
I've to keep Credit Card co informed & they've cancelled card in meantime.
My order set off at £35, the invoice they sent me (from auto3@servicecentervip.com !!) was then £39, and my credit card statement shows £41 !
I've sent an email via the website asking them for refund & to cancel the order.
BUYERS BEWARE!!

This website is legitimate - it differs from your link:I've ordered from them many times without issue.I've always paid by credit card though, not paypal.
