WARNING: There are scammers exploiting the WTB thread

@popvulture:

Just got a message from Timada126 (raw unwashed):

Hi there. I’ve got some nice pairs of IHSH-193 XL going for a reasonable price. Kindly reply back or text me at 760 349 1158 if you’re still looking
Thank you
Tim

SCAMMIN! ::)

Edited to tag @neph93 @Giles

Same here, he's been messaging me as well and I've been playing along.  He sent me a pic of the "item" which he has and it just so happens to be the exact pic that is on the product description page.

Thanks gents. On it.

@neph93:

He gone.

Assuming Tim the Scammer is the from the same squad of losers as the recent lot, they have read our posts here and have rather pathetically attempted to refine their MO to give themselves a more realistic cover. This includes the option of contact through the forum in their initial message, and in the case of this wanker some shitposting on the beer thread. It will take more than that I think…

I knew the username looked familiar. Was this the Modelo man ?

[neph93]

Yessir!

[Giles]

So, just to reiterate.  If you feel compelled to engage.  Demand a photo of the product with a note in the image with the minimum of date and forum name….

@Deuce:

Hey, @neph93 these guys have tried to scam me.  Thanks!

Thank you, especially for the documentary evidence. These guys were both reported a day or two ago and I zapped them.

Thank you.
Just happened to me today.

Please send me forum name of the person who messaged you and if possible forward the entire message. I will boot the plonker to the curb.

Yesterday he sent to my email address pics of a Ship John - The Wills jacket - Waxed Canvas XXL taken from IH forum, a jacket sold in 2018 by member joephoto:

https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=12353.0

Scammer told me the pics were of the jacket I'd like to buy and he told me other lies.
Thanks for your help.
All the best.

I saw the pictures you sent me.

I don't understand, help me.

Please, look:

Maybe yours is the same jacket posted on the Iron Heart Forum?

It looks so.

Watching the pics you sent me, the jacket of the IH Forum member joephoto looks exactly the same jacket you are offering to me… Please, see the following pics taken from Iron Heart Forum, the pics are the two same posted by member joephoto:

Unfortunately it is too big to me, it's a XXL size.

And I fear it isn't your jacket, but Joephoto jacket, sold on 14th December 2018.

Scammer's reply:

Thats my brother he posted it for me

If you are interested let me know

To make its faster or you can pass

Thanks Jason/avvgiorgioscapolla@yahoo.it
