I was searching for a Coleman Camping Coffeemaker and this site had a much lower price than everyone else. Started placing my order and when I began the checkout procedure, the first thing it asked for was shipping zipcode and phone number... reasonable requests for shipping. However, then it sent me back to the shopping cart and only then did it tell me that the item was unavailable. I think I've just been scammed into giving them my phone number. All seems a bit suspicious, so I would advise staying away.

MysticArtCreations.com can be added to the list of fraudulent web sites.
I ALMOST purchased from them until I searched the phone number. All reports on their site list it as good... but with no reviews.
This company puts out a best price on an item and then charges you a large fee for the purchase. The total costs are much higher than a regular vendor. They don't state what the fee is for, just another scam.
SCAM(!) *BEWARE* --They have put up MANY web sites, all use the same web page template, and all use the same, common phone number *******485

On 3/30/15 I was shopping for kayaks on-line. Several were shown to be for sale below all competitors' prices on UpCycledSavings.com. Before I ordered anything, I decided to do a little research. Exploring the associated phone number, *******485, I found MANY websites for online stores which are very similar to one another, and ALL use the *******484 phone number. Therefore, I believe the stores and websites are set up to scam potential customers. The other sites I found tonight are:
