tradex.us

Standard Google search for a difficult to find item. Went to a listed website (precisionglockslides.com) and it looked legitimate. Contact info lists a street address that makes it look like it is part of an existing gun shore in Idaho. The Paypal link did not work when checking out. An individual with an Ohio phone number contacted the next day to request alternate payment as "our paypal account is having trouble". He offered several payment options, all variants of direct cash or crypo transfer. I suspected scam at that point but sent cash via Apple Cash as the item is next to impossible to find. Then Tradex.us reached out for "shipping insurance & fees", asking for an additional $150. This seemed to confirm my suspicion and an internet scam search found this name listed. I went dark at that point. Several additional emails from both were sent. Precisionglockslides confirming my order over and over but never addressing shipping issues. Tradex asking me to pay again and again via the same typo-filled email. I am frustrated with the financial loss but worse, as it was an order for a product, I had submitted all my contact and mailing info.
