It is all too sad to read. I feel for the customers in this case.
I definately feel sorry for the customers that got hosed by these frauds when they were still reputable. And while I still feel for current customers, I also feel customers have a responablility to research a purchase of this magnitude, expecially an internet company. Get the facts and educate yourself. There are plenty enough red flags out there now about AV123 that nobody should be doing business with them. And anyone who does, should understand that they are taking a huge gamble. As wide spread as the internet is, customer ignorance should not be nearly as common as it was 10 years ago.
I don't mean to imply that if you ordered from them, then you got what you deserved. I just feel customers should arm themselves with knowledge when they're dealing with internet companies. If you're good enough on the internet to find AV123, then you should have no problems finding out that they are having major issues with customer satisfaction these days.
