Good Morning my Friends,

Anyone know anything about Perkins Powered Parachutes? I got a letter yesterday from that company concerning an overdue account. Supposedly the invoice date is 2/27/2017 in the amount of $75.00

I have no idea what this is about. I haven't needed any parts and haven't flown in at least four years. I plan on calling these people first thing Monday morning.

Thanks Partners,

Chap

I reckon you just need to ask them what the part was and what the shipping address/email address was and who placed/took the order.... :noidea

I find it is pretty unusual that a business would send a part without the payment being received and cleared?

It smells like a scam to me? Maybe someone has hacked his customer list and told them all they owe $75 hoping some will simply pay it?

I think you need to let him know he might have been hacked? Forward him the email, or scan and send him a copy of the letter.

He probably knows nothing of it.... :noidea

Oh, I forgot.... you owe me $75 too... :lie :) :yoda2 :Wolvie

:Confederate

He donates an Icom radio every year to Bensen days raffle

I was finally able to get in touch with Betty Perkins, a very nice lady by the way. She apologized saying they sent the invoice letter to the wrong "Bryan".

Thanks,

Chap

Not really.
He traded a camping spot and a banquet ticket for the radio every year.
Lockwood and Wicks Aircraft are the only ones to donate to the raffle.
This year Wicks gave up a nice headset with mic and adapter and about ten Pitot tube covers.
