Carl Forson Bought flooring to be shipped to Ghana - Used stolen credit cards - Cancelled order and wanted checks for refund Worked Via Email - Out Of S. Africa - Using US Address Address used was Missouri - The group of people work out of South Africa

We got an email from a man in "Missouri" that wanted to buy material from us. He made the purchase then told us he wanted to ship the material to Ghana. This smelled a little fishy so we called the credit card company and they told us his credit cards were in two different people's names and neither were in his name. We mailed his receipt to the address he gave us and the lady that lives there called us. She says he's been using her address for a long time.

Apparently there's a group of 4 or 5 people in on the whole thing. Had we gone through with the order, they would've asked us to pay their delivery driver $500 with one of our checks, after we charged his (stolen) card that amount. We aren't sure what they would've done after that.
