Warning - Phishing scam
A company representative called me to let me know that my money making website was finished and gave me the email address and the last four digits of the credit card used for the purchase. There were a few things that were incorrect with his information.
1. He knew only my first name
2. The email address was a company one
3. The last for digits of the credit card# were incorrect
Please be advised this was a person phishing for information. He stated he was from Drake Enterprises and yet the company is listed as Adrooba. I called the number back and he was at the number - 800-225-9567, which was the number he gave me.
Just wanted to make you aware of the call in case you experience the same.

I know. Just when I think I have heard them all another one is developed. Just wanted to spread the warning.:)
Hi Loes, That was a new one for me. It caught me off guard at first...You are quite welcome...I try to let you know when something is not right.
I've been caught off guard too, a few weeks ago, I got a notice of a parcel, that couldn't be delivered, click here for the track and trade code..... only it wasn't a parcel:(
Wow Loes! You can't be too careful. It's a shame that things like that happen. I hope it did not hurt anything.
No I was in luck, I was saved by someone hitting the doorbell, before I clicked something, then I apped my husband, to fetch the parcel, and the post office told him it was a scam, so my husband called me right away, DON'T click any link!
