Scam seller
 
I had someone reply to my WTB post for smoked tails. His name is Al B Alvarez and from aa829538@gmail.com

He emails me telling me that he has tails for sale. I asked him what his name was on 986 and he said he wasn't a member. Then he said if I would send payment via western union. I said I only do paypal. And then no reply.

Watch out for this guy.

Another one
 
Got another scam seller from bigben1435@gmail.com from the UK. Did a google search on the email address and multiple links came from other forums/boards warning about him.

Yep ;)
Don't put your email address in posts...pm by forum members only is the way to go :)

Always be weary if something is suspicious. I remember I had a guy try to sell me a whole 996 body from the UK randomly in my email. Laughed when the shipping was only 200GBP.

I like to mess with scammers. Had one guy send me a check. Got a text a few days later saying his dumb secretary sent too much and could I return the extra amount. Told him I thought that was the agreed amount. A few text back and forth and he soon realizes I'm "F"in with him and then the insults begin. They usually stop even returning my text. I turn it into a sport. One guy I just kept sending text after text after text after text clogging his phone up. Maybe like 200 text total. My wife says I have a problem:)
