Futurlec

Looks like the Futurlec website is off the air (futurlec.com).
Anyone know anything about it?
Thanks!

I saw that, too.  I think it's from last year.  Their site was up a month ago, and I ordered some relays, but when I went to check on my order, nothing.  They have pretty slow service, but good prices.  Maybe they've just gone away.......

I ordered from them last December and got my stuff in a bit over a month.
And yes, their prices are so crazy I'm going insaaaane.

futurlec.com works here and now...

I wouldn't put much value on that scam report. It looks like a scam itself, doxing the domain owners, who might not have anything to do with the scam.

If you want to know if a website is really down, type "down for everyone" in Google and use one of these test sites that appear in the results.

Not only is the site back up this morning, but overnight I received an email about my order.  Must have been a fluke.
Thanks everyone!
