Greetings.

Just wondering what anyone knows about this operation.

Last month I responded to their 15% off sale (and of course no VAT) and ordered a Blackwatch kilt.

This "Designed in Scotland" garment soon arrived and I am happy with the quality for the low price I paid and the fact that it's probably made in Vietnam or India. It suit me well alongside my 6 camouflage casuals.

Here is where the problem comes in. Shortly after its arriving I start getting these emails:

Dear

You have made an order number 4034, which was placed on 2006-02-22 02:06:19.

You have ordered the following items:

Unfortunately your credit card was declined. There are several reasons what could
happen:
- Some details were placed wrongly. It could be CCV2, expiry date or credit card
number - please call us to confirm those;
- There is a limit set on your credit card, so you cannot spend more than some amount
of money daily - you can call your bank to change this limit;
- Your bank doesn't accept transactions from another countries - you can call your
bank and tell them to accept transaction from us;
- There is not enough money on your credit card - you can call us to charge you
after you have sent money to it.

You can contact us by calling (+44) 131 225 8118 or by e-mail:

My first thought was that it would have been stupid on THEIR part to ship an order without being paid so I check my Visa statement and the payment was made.

The order number they reference is not the same as mine. Each email includes a different number.

I emailed the company and got a form letter in return. I called the USA 202 number on the ORIGINAL confirmation email and its always voicemail.

Now I am getting worried that my credit card info has been hacked as the emails are coming with my real name on them.

I get one or two or three a day sometimes.

Has anyone had this happen to them? Know more about this company?

I just want the emails to stop and for me to stop having to watch my online statement every day to see if a hacker is running up new home theater equipment on my card

Thanks
