Possible scammer


Recommended Posts

Just got a PM from someone who just joined 40min ago about me looking for a S&W K-22. He said I should call Alex in Washington. I reported it to the administration and sent a PM about it to one of them. This is just getting crazy, it really hurts new members cause I will only deal with established members here that I've done business with before.

Please don't let that drive you away from making a deal with a newer member (like me!). Those kinds of scams are designed to get you to send a money order or prepaid credit card off, never to be seen again. The couple of deals I've made here on TGO have been face-to-face or mailing to or from an in-state address. 

I agree that the scammers suck and I think they should be beaten within an inch of their lives, but it's fairly easy to figure out what is and isn't legit. And if in question, don't do it.

About like the daily 2 or 3 calls wanting to extend my warranty on my car. The newest vehicle I own is a 2006 Buick Lucerne, I don't think they really want to warranty it!! Pretty much if you call me and your name isn't in my phone you better leave a message noting who you are or you get deleted.
