Wouldn’t do business with this person at all. I paid on Sunday for the two mp40’s and two wet sides were also supposed to be included in the deal. She said that she was going to send them out the next day before noon. I contacted the person three days in a row and still haven’t heard anything back. I can tell she’s been active and reviewing threads on the forum but yet has to respond back to my email, my messages on the forum, and on PayPal. I definitely wouldn’t buy anything from this person. Just sad considering I spent 515.44.

ADMIN EDIT: The seller in this transaction was @FreeEnergy

Hate to say it but that’s most likely a scammer! They padded their post count with “welcome” to new members and that’s it! Zero contributions and zero threads! Good thing you protected yourself with PayPal!

My question for the scammer. Why even go through the trouble when the transaction is going through PayPal? Good luck OP

Because the paypal account is a dummy account. You can open one and as long as the transaction is less than $600 you don't have to do anything that ties you to it. You just send the money to another account and it is gone.

Thankfully paypal will refund his money and try and go after the scammer. But they won't get anything back.

Looks like it wasn’t a thread but they reached out to the OP by pm in response to a WTB post. I agree though, very likely a scammer.


100% chance if you post a WTB thread anywhere you will be contacted by at least one scammer.
