Scammer - bridgefire110@gmail.com
Experiencing multi-post(100+) TZ members with positive reference from long time posters - but most likely hacked account. Latest was:
bridgefire110@gmail.com Avoid this guy.. got me for a few $K and wire instruction was to: Smith Milan Anderson with BBVA Bank in Utah. My stupidity for rushing to judgment to buy. Please do not make same mistake. Best, Fred |

We learn something new everyday. I just want to remind everyone to verify carefully, be patient and not rush too quick to judgment(even if it appears to be a fair deal and with all the right collector wording). This way, we keep trading fun for all of us.
It is just money. Life moves on. |

This BBVA Compass bank seems to have come up before in a scam situation like this. I cannot think of what the situation was but wanted to respond for when I remember.
Sucks that someone took you for $$$. Hope you get it back. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Hi Guys
He's actually trying to scam me now. He also goes by Chris Coque. He sent me an email on a post I have trying to get me to open my post but it's a scam trying to get my password. Be careful out there. |

Just got in touch with me as well about a sub I have advertised on other sites. A search turned up this info on TRF...thanks for the heads up. He tried to get my TZ password via same method.
