Ouch. What did he get from you and how did it go down?
I was looking for an xr30 which he claimed to have even sent pictures of lights. I said I was skeptical because if his post history he even had a story for that too and agreed to take half payment now and the other half after I received the light. Was supposed to ship out the light same day, over night shipping. Well needless to say did not ship light out never sent shipment confirmation and won’t refund money

Please message me any info you might have as I’m going to contact the FBI Internet Fraud Division. I have their IP and other identifiers that match other scam accounts among other things.

Sorry about what happened to you here! So many times it's a Wanted To Buy post that attracts these scammers.

I wouldn't deal with anyone who just joined and who has only one post.

Good luck everyone, be careful!

I had a couple no history new members answering my wanted ad. Running a wanted ad is risky
