This is at least the third one of this guy / girl within the last few hours

And, yet another one. Same couple of people, multiple profiles, multiple fake posts today. If you suspect it is a scam and can't find it on GunBroker try cutting and pasting the text of the ad into Google. This one shows up in a shop in Florida

Think I got them all. Please hit report if any are still out there. Thx.
Yep, they're busy today.

Another question. If we (ODT) have positively identified "scammers" is there a list we can see?

A list would be ofno use because when the scammer is caught admin closes the account and pulls the ads.

Please hit the report button so we don't have to go hunting. He was in the middle of PM'ing members. Hopefully we got it quick enough.
Thx.

I probably nuked 10 just last week. If we can verify it, they are gone.
We get a lot of "something smells fishy about this user" with nothing else to go on. Details help. Sometimes we can verify bad actors, sometimes we can't.
As mentioned, anything that potentially helps a member from getting taken is appreciated.

You go boyie!

I think he knows where the button is...LOL

This one seems likely, but not sure yet. Let's see how they respond... A lot of these scammers seem to be the same person, with a new profile. You can usually tell them because you ask a question and they either don't know the answer or delete it.
