Hey guys!
Shopping around for a North Nugget and came across a site called Indokitesurf (.com) offering prices that were goooood. Too good!
Did a little due diligence and at first nothing was coming up on Google however there was a site called IndoKiteboarding and a thread on this forum about it being a scam. That website has since disappeared. I noticed somebody had commented about Paypal being an advertised option on the main page that wasn't actually available upon checkout.
So I signed up for an account with real name and email but faked all my other details, if they're scammers I don't expect they're above stealing my identity too.
Sure enough, once you get to checkout, the only payment option is 'Bank Transfer'.
Suspicious! I'm steering clear of this one and just thought I'd make a post to see if anyone else has seen this site and found it suspicious. Hopefully it can also warn others to be careful.
The 'About Us' page is actually good, no typos like you usually see on sites like this. However they claim to have opened their doors in 2001 yet their .com domain name was only just registered a few months ago, January 2015.
Suspicious X2!
If I'm wrong and am accidentally sabotaging someone's business I'll ask a mod to delete this thread. If I'm right they might even have the brains to drop the 'Indo' on the next site so we better be extra careful!
Anyone else got any feedback on this site?
Thanks all!
