Broaddict.com "Product Test" email

[Fourbyracer]

I received an offer to test for free, 3 products from marketing@Broaddict.com. One is for a roof rack, 1 is the Rear Tailgate Table, and 1 is for Trail Sight Lights. I have purchased several items from them in the past and the email appears to be coming from that same email. Has anyone seen this or taken them up on the offer? My first thought is that its a scam. I inquired about it and they said to purchase the items from their site on Amazon and they would reimburse me. The Broaddict store on Amazon definitely has the same products and looks legit as well. I copied the emails below. The response definitely has a China flair (notice the misspelled words and calling me "dear")-- which also sets off alarm bells and I always assume if it is too good to be true, it probably is. What do you guys think?

I also suspect Scam. I don't like the you buy it, then we will refund you. Not sure I would even trust my own family with that process.

I was the victim of a Scam on Amazon, I reported the scam to Amazon after shipment was continually delayed. Amazon quickly removed the vendor and refunded me, but it was only a $50 item. So scams can even happen on Amazon. Social engineering (scam) is getting really good, AI is a lot worse. The saying, believe nothing you hear and only half you see, is going to quickly becoming a reality.
