Looks like about 50/50 rating. I personally wouldn't risk it, as it seems like they've just recently turned to scamming.

If in doubt, leave it out.....

Companies that start with "Best" or "Lowest" or something like that always seem to be a bit towards the scammer side. Although Best Buy can be the exception to that rule (or at times not be :D )
