This was a pretty decent attempt to scam us and I thought I would share with all.
Recieved a email from Dr. Gregg Lipp, [email protected], phone is 233201540936. He emailed us requesting product pricing and I responded. He then asked me to contact Jeff Willson [email protected] for shipping pricing to give him a final quote.
Caller wanted parts shipped to:
