    Just a WARNING to the TW community don't get scammed. I was shopping for deals and ran across a site where they take your credit card info.

    They had seat covers and some other tacoma related products that were too good to be true on price

    DO NOT go to https://www.mpakissale.com/

    Called in my credit cards and they will be sending me new cards ASAP.

    Yep. Always use PayPal. Then you’ve got an escape plan.

    When you give your CC info your entering into a contract to purchase goods or services...A merchant will serve you with the liability i.e. the invoice or bill and then you pay....can’t happen any other way.

    With my mastercard, they have insurance, so because the scammers are buy something that is fraudulent you don't pay. It's just a minor inconvenience for my credit card security.
