Hello, I apologize if this post needs to be moved elsewhere. but I recenlty received a reply in my in box regarding someone who is not on this site who has parts that I was looking for in this section.
I was given a name and e-mail address to the contact of the parts. I e-mailed the person and at first seemed legit and professional and as correspondance continued asked me immediately how
I wanted to make payment. I asked for a shipping quote twice and it was ignored. Just a request to send funds immedietely and package would be shipped with a tracking number. it all sounded
fine until I request for shipping was finally answered with a rediculously now amount. Too many red flags started going off. I then replied back to the person on here about the identity of this individual
I was dealing with. that came with no response. after 15 emails back and forth the dialogue changed and the written english language started to slide in quality. This has all the signs of a scam!!!
I confirmed this with paypal when I told the individual he will only get my money through a good and service transaction. The conversion went sour from there.
Please note those of you looking for parts on here please be advised people are fishing for unsuspecting people such as myself to steal money from.
you may recieve a pm with a forwarding e-mail address to take you off site. I received a referral from someone who is a member on here. so who knows.
