Tell them your account is 968273266766 and let them figure out what that spells.

Isn't it weird that in AMERICA our flag and our culture offend so many people......
but our benefits don't?

Not so fast. A quick Google search of the phone number comes back to some 4 wheel drive company: http://www.emiratesdesert.com/index.php. I would do a little more research before blowing them off. It would be a shame to lose out on a contact like that. Of course a scammer could be using their company as a front to confuse you. But the website looks real.

Doesn't it seem strange that their entire website is done in English and not Arabic or whatever language they speak?

Don't get Emirates business confused with the a$$holes of !$!$ who
would love to tears these businesses down because you're not allowed
to have fun!
FWIW Emirates is the best airline in the world bar none....
EDIT : The language thing.....lotsa different arab dialects in the UAE as many if not most
of the companies are not local including, of course US and European companies and like
always the default written language is English.
This company can be contacted via their webmail here:

Me 'em do PayPal. That way you are insulated. Alot of money over there! Might turn out to be a good source. (Hopefully they don't ride any '13's over there and blow themselves up in the heat)

Unless they have changed something, Paypal is not always that friendly towards the seller. The buyer can complain and Paypal will pull the money back out of your account.

I'd inform them that you don't carry what they want and may be show them your fine range of merch
that you could help them with.
I've worked for a couple of big British companies that supplied goods to Abu Dhabi businesses over the
years.......since the early 70s in fact when they were still building the place!

I did contact them using their contact page and copied the spam so they would know.

I did get a reply back from them and it is not spam... they must be confused about what I sell or they want me to buy the products then sell them to them. I explained that is outside the scope of my store and gave them some links to places that sell that kind of stuff.
On another note I just got a call from Turkey and the guy bought an Air Filter Kit for his RS.
