Tom, do you remember the screen name of the person who contacted you?

This person lax whatever is pulling some scam with me right now.Says he has parts wants address.No pics or anything. He needs to go.

I also had a contact with jeff1000, he sent me pictures of a hood latch listed on ebay, I guess the o ly way to buy parts is from ebay or local.

Jeff1000 is banned.

What's their screen name? Lax something?

derbykaren400
 

I had a issue with derbykaren400 last week, they answered a wanted ad I had and asked to contact them thru g mail which I did. I asked for pics of the item which they sent. Something just wasn't right so I asked for a pic of the item with a dollar bill next to it and that created a whole sh-- load of problems. So beware of them.

I would never do business with a junior member that has zero posts and joined up yesterday !

That person was banned shortly after they joined the site, I checked their IP address and they were in Lagos, Nigeria.

A tip: for whatever reason, scammers from overseas often use screen names that are made up of two unusual names plus a number (like derbykaren400) so if you see that sort of thing it's usually a good clue.

Doing business with established PY members only would be the safest bet.

Any new members without any posts are highly suspect. No matter how badly you might need something they’re offering just resist the temptation, it’s just not worth the risk.

9 of my 21 years overseas was in Nigeria. I used to like getting the scams about the dead ambassador, etc leaving money, and after a bit of back and forth emails, I’d take a picture of something local and tell them I could be there in about 10 minutes, It would usually end the emails for a while.

Thank You

How about Eric5568?

They were suspended.

Don't trust Kurt parker on here as trynsave. Misrepresented a radio I bought. I sent it back at my expense. Was told by him that he would refund me. Researching him online showed other people having the same issue with him

I had some issues with him as well, but never lost any money.

Make it 50 posts till you can sell things.
Make it so New members can’t see the classifieds till they have been around for a while.

Seriously. I'm amazed that anyone keeps getting fooled by these scams.
