I tried to order Raymond Weil watches from the GenuineWatchesDepot.com
site since they had the best prices online. When I filled the payment information and submitted the order, I got the following email from this site: Unfortunately your order was not successful as we are switching our business model to payments by Western Union Money in Minutes transfer.
Your credit card was not charged.
We have chosen this business model as this is the only one that allows us to keep the lowest prices on the internet.
You may reply to this email in order to send you the necessary detailed payment instructions or cancel the order.
Please note that you will also get an additional 7% discount to cover the Western Union transfer fee.
I suggest to stay away from this site. This is a credit card phishing scam!

Order a watch from Genuinewatchesdepot.com on the 8th of April. 
Got a mail from them telling me that since I live in Norway they could not accept MasterCard/Visa and told me that I could pay through Western Union to Irvin Jacobs in London. I tranferred approx. $837 (469 British Pounds) to them.

I sent a copy of the receipt to Genuinewatchesdepot.com as agreed. I got a new mail from them confirming that they will verify the payment and contact me with the shipping details.

Since then I have heard nothing from them even though I have tried to contact them numberous times without getting any feedback.
This is a classic internetrelated fraud.
KEEP AWAY FROM THEM.

The UK office address on website s just a postbox - when I pointed this out suddenly all replies ended ( up to then they were very helpful but requested payment via a bank transfer - it was then that I smelt a rat!
