You can see from the email that the English is not Western English in some places... Thats because they operate from Malaysia.
If you call customer service, which is a Long Island NY answering machine, you will not get through because it asks for theextension of the persion you would like to reach.
As you can see from the email their business hours do not include weekend days, yet I ordered on Saturday... So the 12 hour rule wont even apply... I would be waiting until Tuesday (Monday being Xmas) for someone to call and "verify" whatever it is they feel they have to verify...
They have a website up and running and taking and charging American (and other) credit cards for a service they only can "verify" and provide Monday-Friday and charge for that service immediately yet do not provide the service timely. That is fraud and deception in it's most basic form.
This kind of nonsense may pass muster in Malaysia but it does not in the States. They state several times on their website that they capture your IP address in the event of fraud... Is this to divert attention away from their fraud? IP addresses are not hard to track in fact easier than phone numbers in some cases. Maybe if they cleaned up their act they wouldn't need to be so paranoid.
Do not use this silly overseas confidence scam. There are better local companies that will be accountable for methods that you can contact if you should have a problem.
