Anyone getting email contacts for orders in the Caribbean??
« on: March 05, 2015, 12:23:56 PM »
Got an email today asking for pricing for printing and for products to be shipped to the Caribbean, any one else having this. These things are always a little un easy.

Yeah I get these quite frequently.  I've had to drop an order or two at a courier service.  I always get full payment before starting a job because its much easier to scam people across an ocean.

Be cautious of all the scams, which are always worded like this below:

Good morning, please i do  need1000 pieces of t-shirt adult small size
and email me total amount and plus the shipping charges. and i will
give you my credit card for the payment
Size: Adult small size
Color:black
50/50% Cotton(50/50 cotton/Dry Blend poly)
Brand: Gildan
Quantity:1000Pcs.

Yeah we get those type email all the time. This one was a little different but still email instead of a phone call and going to Antigua wanting 100 shirts, 100 bags, 100 towels, and 100 bandanas showing mocked up art and all, out of curiosity we asked the, "lady" if we could call her and she did reply with a phone number.

all of our over seas orders are paid for by either money order or cashiers check.  much safer and you can verify that it is valid as well.

You have to ask yourself why would someone that far away come all the way to your door to buy embroidery. Could it be that there is not another embroidery shop between you an who knows where.

DUE TO CIRCUMSTANCES COMPLETELY WITHIN MY CONTROL YOU SHOULD GET YOUR OWN TEE SHIRT AND A SHARPIE MARKER BY NOON TOMORROW OR SIMPLY CALL SOMEONE WHO GIVES A SHIRT.

Another request we receive via email is for large quantities of usually one size of blank t-shirts.  These are scams too.
