Scammer Alert

Hi Guys,

I came across this post on Watchnet:

http://forums.watchnet.com/index.php...1733&rid=55190

Compare it to this one from TRF:

http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=49290

See the similarities?

I bought this watch from Scott and now this scammer is stating he bought this GMT-Master II from Scott and is selling it.

http://forums.watchnet.com/index.php...190#msg_263888


So watch-out. Too good to be true is too good to be true.

Thanks for Scott's quick action. Without his testament, it may be harder to get the scammer's for sale posts off.

Wow! The scammer has the propensity to post counter arguments to defend himself...
What a jerk.

Many thanks for alerting!

This is why I don't mind spending few hundreds more buying from well known sellers.

It's the same scammer previously banned on TZ. He's a bad speller who scammed a lot of people who did not check his references. The lesson here - ALWAYS check references unless it a well known seller.

Tony Chow/Chen Noob watches

DO NOT TRUST OR USE TONY CHEN OF NOOB WATCHES!
He is very very very responsive and will lure you into his clutches until he gets your money, normally by western union or other similar means so you have no way of ever retrieving it once you have paid it over. 
I ordered a watch and some parts from and once payment was made the communication immediately goes cold and you have that sinking feeling that you have lost your hard earnt money and Tony has added you to his list of scammed victims. 
His WU details are:
Beneficiary's first name: Fangpu
Beneficiary's last name: Zhou
Address: 208th Binjiang West Road
City: Guangzhou
Province: Guangdong
Country: China
tel:+86 137-9818-7656
Tony Chow stole $170 from me. 
PLEASE DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS CON ARTIST. 
***USE A TRUSTED DEALER****
