Strange Email from Avet????
I got an email that said it was from Avet asking if I wanted more info on the newest 2009 reels. The strange part is that it came from a G-Mail acct and there where no attachments or links. I don't think it was a spam or virus but I am not sure, did anyone else get this email? It also listed model types that I have never heard of??? ( AVETTI, AVETBS, CLFB, AVETTOR)

Confused

I believe this is a Chinese company doing knock-off reels. Check out Alibaba.com.

They are not great about responding to e-mails. Just call them.
