WARNING: There are scammers exploiting the WTB thread

[Kasi]

You welcome G..

[raggedglory]

Here's another one, username jaydeencox (who is apparently a famous freestyle wrestler  ! ).

I asked for photos with a measuring tape, and got photos from the IH site instead. At this point, I can pretty much conclude it's a waste of time to post anything in the WTB thread since all you get are these scammers, unfortunately.

Hi man I got one in L not up to a year that I can't use anymore because I added few pounds and my wife ordered one which is an XL but I think I need an XXL to fit in.  Need to cut down because I'm getting lazy and bigger these days.

This seems like it has the potential for a lot of fun for someone with more creativity and spare time than me.

[Inorganic]

@goosehd thanks for working to keep this corner of the internet safe from shitheads

[goosehd]

@Inorganic …and thank you for bringing it to our attention. It takes a team to keep this place safe.

I got a message from him as well. Figured it was likely a scam. So disappointing there are people out there like this!!

[GardenState]

@Inorganic Got this one too. Figured it was a scam. Was just getting around to mentioning it now.

These shitheads float around in the ether and we don’t even know they’re working the threads until you let us know.

Please be vigilant and let us know when you get these messages. They will be dealt with quickly!!

Thanks for the heads-up. I'm new here and haven't posted anything, I'm here to buy and trade. I'm not dumb enough to take discussions out of the forum and will only use PP G&S (with me paying the fee) and I used my full name so I'll be foolish to dupe anyone here.

Specifially about just using this free resource to trade.

Why no rules about asking for payment by PayPal friends and family? This seems to be the default choice and makes it easy for scammers.

We provide the platform, it is up to buyers and sellers to do their own due diligence. If this was commercial and we took a percentage or charged fee's then we would make all sorts of rules up.
