I have been extremely lucky due to diligence and common sense when purchasing on the Internet. Today, I was going through my old receipts and discovered an order I had placed on March 14th 2009 that never arrived. I purchase a lot of items and it’s hard to keep track of what I bought and what has arrived. Having a checklist of things ordered really helps.
The company in question is called lidomounts.com and they appear to be a legitimate site that sells mounts for all sorts of vehicles. I had purchased a mount for a garmin nuvi for a motorcycle. Well it turns out this company is fraudulent. There appears to be a lot of postings about them, unfortunately it was all posted AFTER I made my purchase.
I looked online with my credit card company to dispute the charge. I was unable to find the charge on my statement so I called. There was no record of the charge. I got lucky… Apparently, their merchant account cut them off and my charge never went through.
I have tried to contact them to give them the benefit of the doubt, but nobody responded to voice mails or emails sent. The only real information I found was through the domain registration, but nobody at those numbers returns calls.
