Fraudulent Website Warning
 

A friend on this site shot me a message asking about components for sale on a site that deals in firearms and reloading supplies. I looked over the site and some red flags popped up. They had no items that are out of stock or backordered. All prices were low enough to make even an older hard core shooter decide to take up reloading. Not that he's older or hard core, just using that as an example. They only accepted forms of payment that do not allow recourse if the transaction goes bad. I did some more digging and other reloading forums are commenting on the scam that was set up. The original business that the site uses for it's name is truly a legit firearms business and do produce quality custom made MSRs. That's where the similarities end. Scammers stole the name, address, etc and set up a website to prey on unsuspecting reloaders. Alphex Firearms is the scam site. If you want to see a long list of comments regarding the fraud go to longrangehunting.com and search for the "Scammer on Powder" thread. I am glad I found this info because it would have been easy to get sucked into making a large purchase when powder and primers are shown to be "in stock" and prices look like early 2019. Due diligence folks.

Mike I JUST found that site last night and always google reviews before I make a purchase. My first tipoff was everything was in stock.

Thanks Mike! Hope you don't mind being called a whistle blower but you sir, are a whistle blower of the highest order!

Again, Thanks!

I'd post here what I think of scammers and hackers but I might get banned for 30 days for what I'd say!! :whistle: :cuss:

It was on this forum too Pete, about a month or so ago.
