This just a heads up to anyone who gets a PM from Just467 (a new member)offering something for sale that you were looking for in the Wanted section.
I was offered a Dians 34 that I had been looking for, at a good price and he seemed very sincere, even sent me a pic of his driving licence. But when I checked out the photos that he sent me, I found them all on the internet :( so I challenged him about it and have heard nothing since them.
All I am saying is do your homework before proceeding.

Hmmmm, Just467 has 6 posts... mostly welcoming other new members.
Maybe he/she/etc is legit and will come clean, or maybe not.
If not, then the level of effort seems high for such a ruse. :rolleyes:

Please notify a moderator if you receive any PMs of this nature. There is a big time scam going on across many websites. As soon as you post you are looking, you will be contacted by a scammer that knows a guy that knows a guy.......get my drift. We will ban and block them from the site. As well, we share this info with other sites.

If contacted by a new member, take a second to google their user name. Scammers arent too smart and use the same username across many forums.
