Possible Fraud Alert

Dealers, if you receive an order this week for a gold coin with a shipping address in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma and a billing address in Tulsa, please proceed with caution. It is not definitely fraud, but we've received two orders thus far and there a few red flags waving. Feel free to PM for details if you do indeed get an order.

    Hopefully the issue is more than simply having a different mailing address than billing address. My business partner has a law office in Tulsa and a home in Broken Arrow, so its definitely feasible someone could have a billing address that goes to their office etc.

    It is most definitely more than just that; I wouldn't waste anyone's time with an alert on just a billing/shipping address situation. But since I'm not 100% certain it's fraud (although I'm now at 75%), I didn't feel comfortable providing any more information other than the two cities involved in the order.
