I just had an order placed in my store from this same email! I am glad to have something like this to verify.
Just had the exact same thing happen at our store. We didn't proceed as the credit info did not match up. Plus it just sounded very odd.
What I don't quite understand is how is this a scam? How does the scammer make a profit if the card is charged first? (And iask this seriously, not understanding how this works...)
i don't really know... except they must me looking for some sap who's willing to send the books before the payment is fully processed... or maybe the payment goes through for a day or two until the books ship and then comes back as 'cannot be processed' or something.
I have a nice little collection of these, and usually the english is quite poor.
Still another interested anonymous responder (call me Ma-Man, since that is what the letter starts with): I am interested in this posting, having received a very similarly worded e-mail query yesterday including the request for the Franklin Bible machine. I sent Sylvia a reply note back that I did not have any of the 5 random books she asked for in stock. And today 24 hours later from out of the blue - lo & behold, I just received an unsolicited e-mail from an address saying they are a domain registry service in China, and that someone else (a third party no less) wants to use my very own book store domain name with the .CN Chinese suffix. Is it coincidence? I will refer it to our intellectual property department as indicated in the note. Oh, wait, that department was disbanded due to budget restrictions. I'd be interested in hearing anybody else's experience. Thank you for posting this little tidbit of mystery. I will sit here and worry that someone else is using a variation of a long domain name that I have trouble remembering myself with some even more obscure Asian suffix. I can't even find my own website domain name sometimes, and I own it! So there is my piece of the puzzle.
We get these emails all the time as well and today we rec'd a phone call for five copies of Black's Law Dictionary. The caller, Morrison, used the TTY/TTD service. I said that this sounds like a scam and the caller promptly hung up.

we got this one too so we thought wed have a little fun with whoever was responding. totally floored me when they said they couldnt order thru our website because they were deaf.....wtf?
I just got a copy of this in my inbox - and I'm guessing it's an excellent way to collect email addresses. Those who respond have now provided a legitimate connection back to their email box for these phishers. It's actually pretty diabolical. For a second I thought about letting them know they'd reached me in error.
