received 2 similar emails today;  most genuine customers will require more item-specific information, and will usually glean the info about shipping, payment etc before firing off an email.  Good folks, if it looks like a rat, smells like a rat, assume it IS a rat......

Hello Sale, Good day, How are you doing today i guess everything is fine with you, Well i am interested in purchasing some items from your store to my own store in MALTA and i will be paying you via my credit card and never mind about the shipping i have a private shipping company that will come over and do the pick of my order from your store so permit me to go ahead and place and order i want from your company. Best Regards, KELVIN  >>

may as well be in Nigeria for all I care;  please look out, don't get ripped off, don't even reply. 

If in doubt a Google search of the email address will throw up history of scams originating from the sender. 

I'd much rather upset a few prospects than get conned.......
