http://www.djonlinestore.co.uk/ sells DJ Equipment with a very cheap price. Way too cheap.
Now, let’s take a closer look.
If you’re a foreign customer (so in this case not from UK), the only possibility of buying products is paying via Western Union.
You send money. Bang. The money is gone.
Here some results of small googlework:

I never bought anything on-line before and I basically trust people. I don’t expect to be ripped off which is why I fell for the djonlinestore scam. I actually went to the bank and did the Western Union money transfer. What an idiot!
I thought something was strange when I saw there were problems with the website, but the thing that started me to thinking was english in the email “Tim Baker” the head of sales sent me. It was weird but I still sent the MTCN number. As I said, I’m a nice person and believe the best in people.
I don’t know why I didn’t do it earlier (inexperience I guess), but I finally googled the company. Luckily, I was able to cancel the Western Union tranfer before the crooks got to the money.
It was close call and I’ve learned a valuable lesson.
