AVS I paid for software using a bank/wire transfer ,they wouldn't accept my credit card. And never heard ffrom them again. London, , Nationwide

   I tried to purchase software registration from AVS (www.avs4you.com).   The told me that they can't accept Credit/Debit card payments.  [Suspicion #1].      I transferred  the requested amount for the registration via  bank/wire transfer [Mistake #1].   That was on July 28, 2011.   They  "said" they would contact me  A.S.A.P.  with the registration/activation code.     I never heard from them again.
        Apparently,  the payment had to go through the Silicon Valley Bank, USA  in California.   Where the 
  "payment" would be  "transferred"  to  Avangate BV,  in the Netherlands  [Suspicion #2].
         The name of the institution accepting the paynent is :
           Silicon Valley Bank, USA
           3003 Tasman Dr.
           Santa Clara,  CA.,  95054
           (408) 654-7400
       The online recipients of payment :
            Avangate BV
            Prins Hendriklaan 26 II
           Amsterda, Netherlands, 1075 BD
   Obviously,  this is  a  "money transferring" scheme. 
         I've dealt with AVS before,  and never had a problem.   But, obviously, they've become unscrupulous within the past couple of years.
