Smelling a rat I told him to "kindly go re-read my thread," as I had posted it as DEAD a week before.

I also got the same message from him regarding my FS ad. It's the exact same message. Watch out!

mikester · 24 June 2016, 03:01 AM

Yep just got a PM from him. Reported him to mods. What a piece of work!

shawnmarz · 24 June 2016, 03:19 AM

Same here.
I'd keep an eye out for user "nerbroski" as well.

nsumner · 24 June 2016, 03:25 AM

He just responded to one of my FS ads, with a TRF clone link. I've alerted a mod as well.

jvmartin · 24 June 2016, 05:20 AM

Same

MonBK · 24 June 2016, 05:40 AM

He must be banned by now or will be shortly.

collarcity · 24 June 2016, 08:14 AM

He sent me the same PM, but now shows as banned. Thanks guys.

He is one of 4 PMs I got in response to WTB ads. All of them with 0 posts. Regret posting a WTB ad.

I realized this almost instantly after posting a WTB... now I want to post one just to troll for scammers. Haha,

And thanks so much for being aware and proactive concerning user concerns. It really sets this forum apart from others.
