Warning
I received an email today that appeared to be from googlecheckout. It stated that an order I had placed with White Racing was on hold due to the credit card charge being denied. It went on about fraud and calling my credit card company, but in the end it asked that I update my google account with updated credit card info and included a link to that site (phoney). The email included a copy of the invoice from White Racing with the items that I purchased (it looked real). The problem was that the amount did not match my copy of the invoice and the date that I ordered was in May! I had already received the parts months ago! I left a message with White Racing and called my credit card company.
If you receive an email like this DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK and DO NOT GIVE your credit card info!

Re: Warning
I can usually recognize the phoney scam emails and NEVER devulge personal data to unsolicited emails or phone calls for that matter. But this one was really good. What gave it away to me was that I had already received the goods and the invoice numbers did not match the real invoice, even though they were close.

Re: Warning
Must be the time if year because I just got an email "offering" a cashiers check for my GVD ported cylinder heads. Of course it's for more than I was asking and could I please return the excess.
