I was just scammed out of $350 bucks by the user below. Be very careful when purchasing items.
There goes my Christmas present.

Happy Holidays!!! I wish you and your families the best.

That’s the longest play to scam $350? Joined in 2020 and finally decided to launch a scam for $350. Seems odd. Sorry it happened to you. Curious what you were trying to acquire, what specifically was the person selling that was convincing enough to send money?

Yeah, that's been my worry sometimes with the marketplace... Life's like a box of chocolates.

OP can you confirm and also shed a little more light?

Shouldn't be playing with guns any how, way, or is it way better, actually you know. Sorry your Christmas is gone.

Happened to me the other day too. Working with my bank to see if the payment can be reversed, but not holding my breath.

By the way, I think a lot of these scams are run through legitimate user accounts. Meaning they look like real people with legitimate post history, but their account gets hacked and utilized to run scams.

Here’s a post with some good advice.

Be cautious out there friends.

Yes it does indeed.

My thoughts exactly. It was a modular bumper.

You live and learn ladies and gentlemen.

Thanks scotthil. That’s helpful.

That suck, scumbags everywhere. Do you mind sharing what you were scammed out of? I am in KY and always looking for Bronco stuff. Hate to get scammed myself or if this fool posts on FB marketplace. Happy Holidays, hopefully Santa will bring you something nice.

 

[GIBhood]

yeah it sucks man. I thought I was purchasing a modular bumper.

PayPal or Venmo with fees adds some protection. Seller won’t take fees then I’d move on.

 

[GIBhood]

Agreed BroncoAz and that is normally what I do on other sites. I just didn’t think it would happen here. I have talked to a lot of people on this form and all have been straight up. It happened, now I know I have to be more cautious.

Dang, sorry to hear. Some people really suck. I’m a capable bumper kind of guy myself and don’t even want one of those modular, made unmodular, with added fog lights bumpers anyway. He did you a favor. Ask Santa for a swanky aftermarket bumper from Havoc or DV8.
