    To the OP, I sure hope you get someone serious about seeing that the perps get apprehended.
    In light of how the AG, and the lefties at Annapolis are keen to keep weapons that don't belong to vetted owners, I would think they would find a way to take it seriously when someone is trying to run a gun scamming operation disguised as a legitimate business.

    Hope you find an "agent" who will take your concern seriously.

    It's a credit card fraud site disguised as a legitmate business. Why ATF no care, there are no guns. Try here https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/Information?OrgCode=CYBERSN#crnt&panel1-1

    Though you'd think the registrar who appears also the web host would take care of it.

    When you google that IP, there are a bunch of scam sites hosted on the same server.

    The FBI investigates identity theft. Changing the address to PA certainly establishes an interstate element.

    You can call the DC FBI Field Office. "Could I speak to a duty-agent please?" will get you to a real person. (I had to do this years ago when dealing with a money order fraud executed in my name.) Not sure the FBI will actually do anything, but they might take interest with the potential for firearms involvement. Doesn't hurt to squeeze the bad-guys from multiple directions.
