Scam Description
Fake web retailer with “too good to be true” pricing. But also some pricing that is clearly an error e.g. a power tool for $45,000. Will answer emails with a bot/template that eventually starts to just repeat itself. Will say that the warehouse is being contacted and that item cannot be canceled because it might already have been shipped. They will say this for weeks with never a resolution.
