Doug "Captain Redbeard" at Captain Foods writes: " An e-mail from a person or company called Keith Moore Investments from Spain is looking for products for one of his stores in Spain. He says they will pay by credit card but the scam is in the shipping requirements that that they require you to meet. His English is very bad and he doesn’t know anything about our industry and you can tell he is trying to wing it. So please broadcast this as a warning to our fellow vendors and such and hope nobody falls for this. This same e-mail and I think person e-mailed this about 6-8 months ago and this sounds like the same one!"
Note from Dave DeWitt: Remember that credit card charges can be easily reversed. Have your bank open a new "trust account" for you and insist that foreign customers do a wire transer of funds to it. Do not give out the real company checking account number.
