BEWARE of SCAMERS on the forum

[LukasM3]

I have recently been contacted by 3 scams after posting a WTB add. Be carful, this is how they do it:
-they send you private message informing you to contact someone at an email address they give you. Then you email them and they send you pictures but only accept payment with paypal gift or other insecure ways.

These are scamer and emails they use:
jergra tommorgan017@gmail.com,
FranBee francisburton1500@gmail.com
swarez67chrisjh365@gmail.com

All joined the forum the same day they contacted me or a day before. The only safe way is to use paypal with buyer protection or better yet to meet in person with the seller.

If you recieve an email from a new member with 0 posts referring a friend/email that has your needed parts beware. They had a few parts I needed and sent pictures but only purchased 1 to see if legit. They still haven't sent part and want me to order more to save on shipping. Beware as scammers like this that spoil the site for good people enjoying their love for cars.

[haynes740]

This sounds familiar as it happened to me on the Want to By side of this forum.

Yes I have been contacted by this goon that uses multiple alias He had quite a few parts with pictures so I wasted $30 on 1 to see if legit. He wanted me to purchase all of them to save on shipping. Still hasn't sent part and still requesting to purchase more parts. Johnmain, Elvis Dotsun

I also got a similar message from someone saying this crap

I have reported the ones that came my way. And they was revoked quickly.

They tiped contacting following:

dbana1712@gmail.com

chrisjh365@gmail.com

melissabrown1500@gmail.com

But I guess is about pointless listing up what mail adr they use. Because they use so many and it is real easy to auto generate one new one for each scam with little efford.

They are so easy to spot tho. They even use pictures from this forum to illustrate the "part" they have for sale.
One even sent me pictures of wrong item and starting to try convincing me it was the right one I was after (first picture on Google using name of part I WTB). When I confronted them they sayd sorry, wrong picture. Here is the correct one.. That one was still the wrong part, and picture nr 2 from the Google search

[csinasac]

currently have "markle" trying to scam me sending me to georgerust34@gmail.com

The message from stevko above is exactly the same message I received from a scammer directing me to John Morgan <johnmor221@gmail.com>. Same schmuck obviously.

[Jrrrrr]

Yes even as of today Elvis Dotun contacted me (Scam) georgerust34@gmail.com (SCAM)recommend him

This guy just PM'D me, I reported it but watch out for these these types of messages. They are scams, and they seem to be happening more often.

Funny thing is I'm not even looking to buy anything, I do have some things for sale though.

I repeat: when you get such an PM, click in the PM on the report button and report it to the mod team, then the mod team will take action.
But with your post above without user name just mentioning: Got a PM telling me to email errolmontiero6@gmail.com Throw it in the bin
we cannot make any action, as the user name is missing.

[trv541974]

Watch out for this guy Donny Hampsom
Another scammer. All I can say is use PayPal or pickup in person

donnyhampsom@gmail.com

[trv541974]

Watch out for this individual as well!!!

[shogun]

Just click the report button, then we can make immy action to ban the scammers

[Glhgg]

All you have to do is report them. I left the forum for a while because the scam attempts were too much, but it seems they won’t stop.
