Has anyone ever heard of them . Found an ad of theirs on Gumtree selling new LCD tv's really cheap? Am a little suspicious though????? Part of the email:

Dear Customer,
We are legit and You have absolutely nothing to worry about,immediately
your payment is made and confirmed,your order will be shipped and a
tracking number will be released to you immediately under one hour.Once
again thank you for your patronage.
like i said we usually ship out orders from our head office in the united
kingdom,due to security reasons,we have been robbed several times,and our
warehouse has been cleared by thieves,and we have lost so such much.so as
a result of that we no longer keep any item at all,and we do not accept
cash any more,we only accept bank transfer as our means of payment for
now.that is why we said pay half and as soon as you recieve your order do
not hesitate to pay the remaining balance.

Best Regards
John.N (Sales Manager)

How do I know that I will get the TV once I make payment? Can it be

His lack of even the most basic grasp of the English language suggests that he's a Nigerian scammer. Any money deposited into that account will disappear into thin air.
