Thanks for the interest, but there isn't much to go on. From Paypal
the seller info is just:


Seller's Name: Pure Digital Solutions
Seller's Email: administrator@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

There is a web page - http://www.puredigitalsolutions.com/ but its
just a placeholder.

A WHOIS using NetworkSolutions shows no useful information. :-(
