An Atlanta forklift dealer wants to warn forklift dealers of fraudulent orders via stolen credit cards.

"I have been contacted many times over the past few months by email and Sprint Internet relay from people wanting to order large quantities of parts and wanting to pay by credit card," she said.

The dealer said she had learned of similar experiences from other dealers and 99 per cent of requests were from people with stolen credit cards.
