Did you report the listing?

 

[huskyduck]

I purchased the firearm from the actual seller.
No scam listing to report.
The scam was a message sent to me that totally disappeared from my message history somehow.

Anytime I post a want to buy add they always message saying some obscure email has it or some link that they want you to click on. I started telling them to get a real job and to stop trying to scam people so now they started messaging me back with sob stories it's quite funny really.
