Hey guys I have been contacting a company by the name of w j mobile systems. They are located in the USA in north vernon indiana. This is their website http://wjosephsystems.com/
I have currently been contacting them through tradeboss because that is where i replyed to their ad. the email address they have available is [email protected]
payment terms are google checkout and they accept sample orders and no moq. They sound really good but can anyone verify!? or anyone see any red flags?! I also noticed on their website that you can order directly from their through google checkout as well.
Thanks!

Just by reading the "about us" page, I can tell you that it definitely looks like a scammer's site.


Stay well away from it.

If you go to the webste then click on 'About Us' and then click on 'Home' to go back, you get a '404' message with the url http://wjosephsystems.com/index.oldhtml

The website is barely professional let alone that of a well established computer and electronics corporation.

Have you tried using the 'Apple Cart' ?

I just get this when I try to buy anything

It doesn't work for me anyway.

Strangely there's an odd assortment of associated websites that suggest this might be something more than the average scam

I forget which url that relates to, but you get the idea.

Some people just can't stop fidgeting about with stuff. :lol:

Very peculiar. Scammers usually do a better job, but that's not a reason to do business with them. I haven't the slightest idea of what the company name is supposed to be, have you ?
