i foolishly ordered £127 worth of products from mwoutletstore which I assumed was related to Mountain Warehouse. Where I have successfully ordered products before. I recieved an email back confirming my order but if you click the web link it is none existent. The photos on the FB advert shows photos of a mountain warehouse store . My order was placed in November but it is impossible to contact the seller. So my Christmas gifts are not coming and my shopping budget is gone. So be warned people it looks sooo convincing

How did you order? Presumably you paid via some method that has a chargeback facility (or the equivalent.)bluejellysal said:i foolishly ordered £127 worth of products from mwoutletstore which I assumed was related to Mountain Warehouse.

Good luck!
Also that site needs reporting to Facebook, if they have been advertising on there - and the police or Action Fraud.Please note - taken from the Forum Rules and amended for my own personal use (with thanks) : It is up to you to investigate, check, double-check and check yet again before you make any decisions or take any action based on any information you glean from any of my posts.

I've seen that advert. There's other scams on FB which advertise top range laptops at greatly reduced prices. The FB team are really not on the ball when it comes to scams yet delete humorous posts on some of their own advertising.You know what uranium is, right? It's this thing called nuclear weapons. And other things. Like lots of things are done with uranium. Including some bad things.
