Scam Description
The seller appears to be in China and the website is a close copy of the actual product owner. I was fooled because there are many places that sell products through different websites and there is generally a good set of protections in place. but this website, bench Made knives (https://www.benchmadeknifes.com) is not the same as bench made (https://www.benchmade.com). They have no address on the contact list and they also have no phone number. Then you give them your credit card number it goes to Bhudah Stone Shop. https://buddhastoneshop.com/ I wrote an email to ask about this and they said that they were an authorized reseller and my package was on its way, then they provided me a tracking number. But in the end the Post office stated the package was perishable and not deliverable because of an incomplete address. so I suppose it was a decoy package sent to establish that they had sent the package and with this, attempt to hold the funds long enough to get around a visa reversal of the charge…
