Someone is posting as me "red1108nyc"

Looks like another scammer is trying to use my login name "red1108nyc" and using an email: red1108nyc@mail.com.

The ONLY email I use is: fred.sung@gmail.com

I also do not have any watches for sale at the moment.

The scammer's post:

http://chronocentric.com/forums/chro...=read;id=58877


Remember, always check for the proper email address and verifiable references during any transactions to be safe.

Scammer contacted me yesterday, he is very slick, be careful.

Edit: Fred just saw the link, that SOB!.......He contacted me yesterday and to prove I had the watch, he asked me to take a picture with his email address and todays date, so he took my entire post of the SS Daytona I am selling and posted it with the picture......when I was suspicious, asked for a copy of his drivers license, he went away. SCAMMER. Be very careful

Scammer contacted me yesterday as well. Expressed interest in my BNIB SS Daytona I have listed for sale. Asked me to send a photo with the date and his email address. Didn't think anything of it, but I also wrote my username and watermarked the photo with my username to be safe. What a POS this person is.

Impersonator is back. I am not selling anything outright at the moment except looking to trade a 16710 Coke. I only use one email address:

fred.sung@gmail.com

Please verify and be safe everyone.



Scammer logins used are:

fkcn

Ymc

Both using red1108nyc@mail.com and this is not my email address.

Best,

Fred

Both those logins were active here recently, one new and one apparently hacked older one. Both looked suspicious and have been removed.
