Enter the Honourable Judge's favourite tavern for a dram of Tittle Tattle. There's an ancient bandit in the corner, but I forget his name...

I've screwed up the URL you posted because, if folk follow your advice, it will actually have the undesired effect of improving the site's Google ranking.

I would advise reporting: [url]http://www.actionfraud.police.uk/report_fraud[/url]

As we are being advised not to visit the site can you tell us how the scam works so we can avoid it?

Far as I know, there's no harm visiting their website which can be deciphered from Slotalot's post, but if we link to it from here, we're improving their search engine page rank.
Looks like the scam kicks in when you give them your credit card details: Google [xurl=https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=WD23+ ... 14&bih=961]"health store shop" scam[/url].
