Answer 1

This is not a legitimate business - many firewalls will block access to this site. The person trying to sell the hockey tickets does not own the tickets they are trying to sell (Edmonton Oilers ). We have friends at the Oilers and they could confirm that the seats he said he had to sell were in fact owned by two different people. This is a scam - they got us!

Answer 2

Hi Manangel,

It is a scam, the linked blog in the first answer was mine. I followed up and researched the company, it is definitely a scam. I would ask whoever is trying to sell to you if they would use another service, such as escrow.com (one that actually lists a phone number, not just hours of operation). In my case, they refused to, also indicating a fraud site. Best I can tell this is a very elaborate scam, as the website is better designed than a lot of legitimate businesses I know. Their Verisign logo is fake (spoofed), it says they are in Philadelphia. The domain is registered to someone in an apartment in Chicago.

Hope this helps, if you have questions feel free to email me.
