Scammer

How do I report a scammer. Posted a WTB thread and was sent a PM to email "a friend" that had what I was looking for. Person stole pictures off of Ebay and using it to receive payment from unsuspecting members. I have screen shots and emails as proof. I did not fall for the scam but trying to prevent others from getting scammed.

i had 2 "members" reply to my wanted ads telling me to email someone at a "gmail" address... assuming they were legit i emailed & got no reply but now i get tons of junk emails! luckily i use my junk email account since i know the majority of gmail addresses are fake.

the members are both new(er) & never replied when i asked why i didnt hear anything back from the emails.

ha, glad I'm not alone on the "email this guy" PM thing from a WTB thread. **** that I'm not emailing some random person to try and track down something that may or may not exist. People suck.

Yeah. People do suck. I didn't fall for it but trying to make others aware so they don't get duped by them.
