    I recently had an inquiry from Ross The Ronin about a Norotos mount I listed for sale. At first he wanted it shipped to Canada. I refused. Then he said it would ship CONUS. He then requested I send a PP funds request. I did so but found it odd. It came back with a bunch of ChiCom crap as the recipient. I did not receive funds and then noticed the ChiCom stuff in the address. I withdrew the funds request. I am not sure what was going on but it was not a legitimate dead I am sure. I did not like the transaction, not shipping NV mount to ChiCom, just bad all around. Be aware of Ross The Ronin.

    Did you report it to the mods?

    also put an “s” in front of ‘cam’ in the thread title
     
    Report it. If the guy is a scammer he needs to be banned ASAP
     
    Reported to mods. It was "rejected". No problem as I requested no action anyway. I lost nothing.
