SCAM ALERT New member Marionfeet

[BigDaddy72]

This member has sent a pm to me saying that a guy named Jeff had an sbc 400 for sale then he sent another pm telling me this guy Jeff has fender wells I was looking for.

I emailed this Jeff about the 400. This guy is a scammer trying to get payment via PayPal accounts

He sent me a PM with a supposed other person's email regarding pulleys I was looking for.
I did NOT respond.

Validation for the 50 post rule. This “Marion” has no forum posts and joined two days ago. Red flags everywhere.

Thanks for handling that animal, it's a shame it's illegal to hunt down scammers and shoot them in the head.

Nothing is illegal unless you get caught!!

I got one for a cherokee steering shaft. Could have bought a cherokee for what he was asking.

Maybe its the clown from 73-87 playing games.

hogs would probably work better

though the backhoe is a nice time saver

If they eat shoestrings and all you don't need the backhoe.....

Lots of members coming out of the woodwork now reporting the attempted scam.
I'm glad it was caught in time and nobody fell victim.

That's why the staff appreciates it when someone let's us know there is an issue. If someone comes in and starts posting stupid sh$t it's easy for one of us to catch it and address it quickly (most of the time) stuff like what happened here is impossible for us to catch unless someone gives us a heads up. MUCH APPRECIATED!
