Agreed fraudulent.   No web presence for this company and nothing with the better business bureau.  Run away quickly from  Consumer Consulting and Trading

Sounds like a Forwarding/Shipping scam.    The crooks order  stuff with stolen credit cards, etc (or better, trick the employee into purchasing products)   and then have the goods shipped to the sucker's, I mean employee's, US address.     The sucker/employee then forwards the goods to an overseas address, usually in Nigeria.    The reason for this is many (like all) US companies will not ship to a foreign address (a Nigerian address is like ringing a fire bell)  on a credit card order because of the overwhelming amount of fraud.   Stay away from this scam because the recipient at the US address--despite being a clueless dupe-- can, and have been, prosecuted for credit card fraud.

I received this , and its too good to be true?be careful...
