Wasn't really sure where to put this but I've been looking at buying the misses some decent gortex hiking boots as we do a lot of outdoors related stuff, this just pops up..... North Face gear at discounted prices. I'm wary about putting my card details into it, am I right in being wary? Or should I give it a try and use my credit card as opposed to my personal bank account card?

It is staggering how naive some people can be. No wonder these scam sites do good business.

Not sure if that's aimed at me but if it is its hardly naive on my part if I'm asking or am wary about it in the first place, the address looks dodgy for starters hence why I asked.

It's naive because you even had to ask, you were considering buying, you said it yourself. It completely screams "I'm a scam".
