    According to feedback received at Yahoo! Answers, this is a scam.

    It is a scam. The 800 number does not work and the other number is a doctor's number. The address of the company is the Compton Housing Authority. It uses freeware merchandise ecommerce ware. The website was just opened, and the programmer is a guy out of Chicago. The ip sponsoring the domain is a 510 number with a full mail box. Steer clear.

    If it seems too good to be true, then it is probably a scam as others have pointed out.
