In my line of work I get many enquiries for products related to the photo and video trade. They are usually genuine enquiries from local customers, and often lead to sales
However, this morning I received and email that has deflected the needle on my suspicion meter. Here is that email, my reply and their reply
The language seems off, and this is a very unusual product to be asking for, especially for 250 of them. They seem to have ignored the fact that I said I cannot supply these items.
Does this seem suspicious to anyone else here or am I just being paranoid? If this is some sort of scam, I can't see what the upside is for the scammer

MY REPLY Hello No, I don't stock these, and they are hard to find in New Zealand. I suggest you try Amazon.com http://ift.tt/2mq5DHC |
