I've been scammed!!! WARNING FOR ALL
Should have researched the company on the web. moto-racing.co.uk
They've scammed loads of others. I spent 34 quid for some foot pegs nearly 2 weeks ago. Took the money and not a peep since then. They never answer the phone or email back. Remember the name so that non of you guys lose money: moto-racing.co.uk http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/co...&start-page=10 |

Re: I've been scammed!!! WARNING FOR ALL
How did you pay ?
" I contacted my credit card company, lodged a dispute and asked them to investigate. Amazingly I then got an email two days later and the pads arrived two days after that " ( From the MCN link )

Re: I've been scammed!!! WARNING FOR ALL
I bought a set of s/s braided brake hoses off them the year before last and it took around five attempts and several weeks to get the right ones sent. They were pretty hopeless.

Re: I've been scammed!!! WARNING FOR ALL
Domain name:
moto-racing.co.uk Registrant: Michael Riley Registrant type: UK Individual Registrant's address: 9 George Road Matlock Derbyshire DE4 3HA United Kingdom Registrar: Webfusion Ltd t/a 123-Reg.co.uk [Tag = 123-REG] URL: http://www.123-reg.co.uk Relevant dates: Registered on: 04-Apr-2004 Renewal date: 04-Apr-2010 Last updated: 16-Apr-2008 Registration status: Renewal required. Name servers: ns.123-reg.co.uk ns2.123-reg.co.uk This information shows that the domain is not registered to a company but to an individual, the address given above may be the owners home address. The address they give on their website is also a residential address, the company TA (Hi-Way Transport) does not seem to exist but the VAT number is genuine, from that VAT number I have found the following information: D Riley 11 Pinewood Road Matlock DE4 3HN Phone number registered at this address is - 01629 582654. This number is different from the one shown on their website. Ste. |

Re: I've been scammed!!! WARNING FOR ALL
Or he used a search engine for the domain and found this thread... hope you get your money back but a quick search reveals how bad that company is!

I paid with CC. My bank has asked for a copy of the order and their terms and conditions (not sure why).
