Scammer Alert!!! Please read

[302moz]

Received a text from phone number 919 289 9080 . He found my number on the parts wanted section . Said he had a 69z radiator tag I was looking for . Knew it was a scam . Called him and he sounds like a foreigner. Said he owned a z and sent me some photos off the internet. Baited him with questions and he fell for it . Watch out for this scum bag !

I received a private message from a member named “Gaul” that responded to my wanted ad, saying he had the 1970 Chevelle bench seat cover I was looking for. He email me a blurry photo, and then sent me another photo from that same 919-289-9080 phone number (of a completely different seat), d’uh.

Meanwhile, my LS6 Chevelle survivor is still looking for a better seat cover… please excuse the shameless plug. ;-]

I got a message as well. I ask for photos of the item, the DA sent photos of something that was not even close. Be aware.

If you purchase a part from anyone on this site or others even from people you know. make sure the email they give for PayPal matches the person....and stop using pal f and f. unless you are sure of who you are sending money to. just an fyi

I just got hit up by "gaul" as well on a wanted ad I posted. He gave the email address Kaceyalbertineruv21@gmail. com . Admin needs to boot that guy off the site ASAP.

Thanks for the heads up guys. Father-in-law got hit by a scammer for a new computer last week.

I ALWAYS google the phone number and email when buying something off someone I don't know.

I would recommend the next time someone posts a scammer, put the name, phone # and email in the heading. That way it comes up in a google search.

Got this e-mail this morning. Looks like another spammer...Joe

Lots of scammers on FB too.

They love WTB posts, they can google and share of what you need, and then make an excuse why they can't use Paypal.

Just got one today for some parts. Not even close to what I am looking for. They were actually aftermarket parts that they photographed off of an old Honda. And every other word on their post was “okay”.

Forgot to mention the number was also 919-289-9080

I,too, just received a pm from dotkip trying to scam money for rally wheel caps I was looking for.

[Jonesy]

I knew that guy Dotkip was a scammer. He was replying to posts and I thought his replies were strange.There may be other usernames in here that just recently joined and they hang out and make replies to posts then start scamming. They are all foreigners.

.... He sent me a meesage too

... about a license plat that I unknowingly forwarded

... sent an update to the person I had sent it to

Add Paul Hertz to the list. [email protected]. I have gotten this message from him twice regarding the 1100837 I was trying to locate, "hi i got what you needed, let me know if your willing to purchase and for details too." I responded the first time and asked for photos. The ones he supplied were of restamps and appeared though he had just copied and pasted them. I got the exact same message again about 2 weeks later.

What I have done in the past is take the number and go online and sign them up for mortgage quotes, new windows and car warranties. Most sites require a phone and once they have that it becomes relentless as the number gets shared broadly.
Big fan of paying it back to folks like this.

Got two emails in last week: I have the idler pulley you are looking for. Let me know if you want to buy.
