This is REALLY WEIRD!! because I did not order anything from Ultimate Ears, the last 4 digits on the Visa listed does not match my actual Visa, and lastly, That is not even my Address OR NAME!!

I dont know what the hell is going on but right now i'm trying to call my credit card company to find out...did anyone else get this email from Ultimate Ears?

edit: ok I just tried replying to this email and got

well I finally (after waiting 15minutes) got in touch with my CC company, and they said it seems like nothing to worry about right now.

this is the first time i've ever received something...so i'm sorta paranoid

 

[yellafella321]

its probably related to the false credit cards that UE has been scammed with. The buyer is probably using genuine e-mails that are connected to real people just to seem more legit.

Go here for more info on the scam.

BTW, be sure not to click on links in suspicious emails. Check the email header and return address, it may not be the right one.

And don't ever give any personal info.

Including posted in publically accessible forums like Head-Fi.

Man sorry to hear you are going thru this. Hopefully nothing serious will come out of it. If I were you I would keep a record of you notifying it to your credit card, just in case.

ya I checked that "scammer topic" yesterday. He was the 1st person that came to mind when I saw "Ultimate Ears purchase..."

seems "superfiorder" is not a real address/name since the email didn't go through. I replied with my "other" email address...because I initially thought it really was UE

anyways, guess this is just a false alarm then

Ya I called them up and they said it sounds suspecious but think it's just a "fishing email"

It was fine though, because the purchase was $1289, and my limit is only $500...this is EXACTLY why I refuse to raise my limit, and they initially wanted to raise it to $1000 too. And also because I haven't used my CC in months, so they said it would definately look suspecious on those 2 accounts.

Guess I wasn't the only one.

At least I feel assured to see this. PHEW.

Count me as owned too. I traded my E3c to him for ER4P and I have received nothing. And now I haven't heard from him in days. He first told me that he would send the Etys then he said he was having a problem and wouldn't say why. I assumed by his feedback that he was ok. Then he asked if I wanted Super.fi5pro instead. I didn't and now I haven't heard from him.
