It may come as a big shock but the business and address you have posted online does not actually belong to the scammer. It's a genuine business.

Rosie hasn't posted a business name and all the addresses scammers use are real addresses - just not theirs. Do I assume your comment is addressed to the OP who posted back in May 2014?

I posted it as it is obviously a scam as was noted by Tizfata last year and when I googled the details I was led to this post.
