Is Bekkers a legit company?

rsnider · 04-24-2023, 02:10 PM

I’m a little late to the party, just bought an AW 2013 135i with DCT and while browsing for some hard to find parts, I came across Bekkers.com and upon placing an order for a special order item, they wanted me to put down a $300 deposit via google pay, cash app, or check/money order. They specifically will not take credit cards over the phone or Apple Pay. The fact they only accept google pay and cash app screams scam to me but I just wanted to check with other forum members to see if anyone else has purchased from Bekkers before. My local parts guy spoke pretty highly of Bekkers, and I trust his judgement, but I’m wondering if this is even the same Bekkers.

Scam

Edit; I wouldn't trust any sort of non credit card payment.
