rietveld Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 I posted that I was looking for an Aquarius MODEM. Just got a very suspect response to my add an hour ago and I posted this in the bad trader sub BEWARE Sammy02 sent me a PM regarding a modem I was looking to buy. Said he knew a guy who had one for sale and told me to text him for info. The seller refused to give me his AA handle and insisted I send PAYPAL friends and family . (Huge red flag). Here is the message I got from Sammy02 I purchased some items from lucky932 some days ago and aquarius computer modem is among the items he showed me that he wanted to part out with. Maybe you should text him to know if it is still available.. Here's his number 608-XXX-XXXX I checked Sammy02 's profile and he just created it and has ZERO posts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are talking about how awesome it will be for me to have a Modem for my Aquarius. He seems very happy to sell it too me but is somewhat concerned that my PAYPAL transaction did not show up yet. I told him it is probably delayed because iof the snow. He does claim to live in Wisconsin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, same thing, this person signed up and after their account was validated sent PMs to 12 different people. I logged in as the individual and sent PMs to every person he wrote warning it was a scam. I then permanently banned the account. The one public topic he started was also removed. If anyone ever sees a suspicious PM or post(s) that look like a scam, please let me know immediately so I can investigate and take action if need be. Thanks, ..Al 3 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
