    You should NEVER send any money to a website via Western Union to buy a product. This is just basic common sense.

    How did you find his site so fast and have time to send a Western Union? Did you visit on the day he registered? You haven't even given him enough time to ship. The site does have a legit looking WHOIS & US address & phone number.

    Are you a real client or someone (an aquaintance?) trying to sabotage him?

    Yea, it's smelling pretty fishy over here..

    http://osc.template-help.com/9005/index.php

    wonder who designed that site for him.


    Edit: are those products installed by default with some version of oscommerce? I searched "This product was added to our catalog on Friday 08 July, 2005." and found a lot of sites with teh same/similar template that "added" the same product on the same day...

    maybe this guy got wind of a competitor who was about to get an ecommerce site up, and is going arround trying to ruin the companys image? if thats the case though, it will probably end up just building back links for the guy
