Yep, it's a scam - I'd love to find their offices and impound their CEO's most valued possessions, including their OH... :D

How dumb do they think I am? I wouldn't do business with a company that has a Hotmail (or Yahoo! or Google) email address as their primary address. :D

    I wonder if that's Microsoft Outlook-/Outlook Express-/Windows Live Mail-specific? I used webmail to check my emails when I saw it, and there aren't that many address book entries (if any at all).
