Heads Up, Scammers in the wire

[Lowlight]

Without Seeing Ghosts in every 3 word user name,

Note overnight we had some suspicious activity we are working on so be careful when engaging with new accounts or recently dormant accounts

Please do your homework and don't assume anything right now, once we look deeper into the system I will give an all clear, but we noticed some changes that I want you to be aware of ...

Remember,

Trust but verify

There are no deals on here, NONE, if you can't believe your luck, you already lost

Ask for verification before sending payment

Do not send payment to someone not part of transaction

If you get an immediate, Send payment here to my friend, scammer, report them

Don't report if you are not sure, it floods the system, and please provide proof as scammers are reporting people. If you report a legit account I will ban you as scammers are reporting real accounts too.

We are adjusting behind the scenes and investigating everything but it takes a minute as we don't want to just ban everything

Understand this is two fold, one to scam you out of money, two to harm the site and take it offline, the better we act, the easier to ID these scumbags

 

[Lowlight]

Remember Post Count is key

and double check you are actually talking to the right person when buying in the PX and not a spoofed account, look at the post count it's the easiest indicator to see

 

[Lowlight]

Nice, caught one already

If you publicly put, I'll take it, and they reach out with a zero post count account to send payment, report it.

They watch the PX, when you say, I'll take it, or WTB they will reach out so be prepared

So this one you caught…

Can you send us his coordinates?

Lots of us own chippers you know…

^^^ the above is merely a coincidence and means nothing bad… just playing the seashells. All satire, of course.

I still don’t understand why people keep posting I’ll take it. I get way back it was first who posted I’ll take it wins. But with scammers rampant you would think sending a PM even with questions would be easier and safer.

Maybe this correlates with the sudden uptick in WTB ads. Are these posters newbs who just don’t know or fudds who just can’t really internet?

This shits happening everywhere with For Sale sections no matter what’s being sold, you’d think people would learn

@Lowlight

Why do we get these scammers vs others sites that live by “I’ll take it” post and shit? Seems like we’re targeted harder.

 

[Aftermath]

I'm willing to work with other to burn these assholes.
PM me...we can work out the details.
It'd be something like you post something and I say I'll take it sorta thing.

It happens every where decently expensive stuff is sold

 

[Lowlight]

They come here because we have a had a successful PX for many years

This place is popular they target popular

That’s not very Christian of you Howie

 

[waveslayer]

I've seen that but when I checked the feedback it was other fishy accounts that had the scammer as their pos feedback. It's easy to create multiple accounts.
