Posting a wanted ad = inite to scammers?
Posted by Cleet Torres on August 3, 2014 at 09:54:14:
I am looking for a set of cables but I seem to have attracted a couple of scammers.
I noticed a couple of characteristics they all seem to share.
1.) None seem to well versed in "Engreesh" or audio, referring to cables as "the product" or "the items" you are looking for
2.) They are always "Unregistered user or user not logged into the Asylum"
3.) So far all have been using Gmail accounts with the warning message "This message may not have been sent by: christianbernard997@gmail.comThis message may not have been sent by: xxxxxx@gmail.com"
I now have a guy emailing from, allegedly, Spain using an account for a gent named "Christian Bernard". It could be legit, although it sounds fishy, or it could be poor old Mr. Bernard email account has been highjacked.
Regards - "stay safe my friends"
