Armslist Scam Alert!


Recommended Posts

A friend sent me this link on Armslist:

It looks like they just captured the pictures from this GunBroker auction and reposted it:

I was ripped of on Armslist last year and would never buy off it again. There's an idea floating around that if you send a Postal Money Order you're safe, but I send one to seller, I had his name, address, a copy of his ID, he never sent the gun, and the Postal Investigative Unit/local sheriff didn't do anything :(

I saw that exact same thing yesterday and noted it just as you did John. It makes me sick that people do this. It seems really dumb that people spend so much work trying to scam other people out of their hard earned money, when they could have just done it themselves. I just dont understand people.

Heck I even sent the scammer a note telling him that I noticed that they were the same pictures... he didn't reply

So did I!

Actually he did reply and he said "I know that's there, it is a friend trying to help me sell it"... Right, so your located 1000 miles apart and he is selling it for $300 more than you are... Seems legit.
