<human>: I'm unsure if this would be the correct subreddit, as it didn't seem to fit in elsewhere, maybe /r/askreddit? If not, here goes.  

A little background, I'm in the military and looking to buy some car parts. I saw on the Perrin Performance website that they have a "Military and first responder discount" [reddit!] . To be approved for this, you need to email or call the representative listed with a few requirements and also list the parts you wish to purchase.  

After sending all of this I received an email this afternoon statin all of the (newly) priced items at about 10-15% discount (awesome!). The email also includes the following text, which I found incredibly off.

> If you'd like to complete an order, feel free to call or email me with your credit card number, expiration date, and 3 digit code OR send a paypal payment to sales@perrinperformance.com, just put it to my attention.  

I shot the representative an email back asking if he could somehow give me a discount code equalling the amount of the discount I was to receive noted in his email, as it didn't feel right to do either of the options listed. I am also going to call tomorrow to see if he could answer some other questions I may have. 

I can't wrap my head around it being a scam, as it is from a reputable company, it just seems odd that the initial payment options listed were what he mentioned.   

Any help or suggestions would be great, or maybe someone has used their discounts before?

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
