Beware of Cyber4342 on TRF

[flintsghost]

This individual who joined TRF in August of 2017 and has to date one reply on his profile answered my WTB ad for a Panerai 63 through a PM on this site. When I asked a few questions he sent me a full battery of pictures and a price. I asked a few more questions and suggested that since he was in Utah and I travel there periodically maybe we could do a face to face exchange of money/watch. At that point despite still showing on line, he failed to respond again to me. He has failed to respond in the last day.

He had indicated that he had sold a few watches on watchnet.com when I had asked for references. Since I belong to that forum I searched for him there for positive feedback without finding anything. I then began a internet search for Panerai 63's for sale. I came up with an old TRF listing by Lig4u for a Panerai 63 and when I looked at it, low and behold the pictures were the same one's I had been sent by Cyber4342. I sent him a PM link to that ad and asked for an explanation...fully expecting that he would come back and say he bought it. I also sent Lig4u an email and explained what was going on and asked if this was the person who bought his 63. Kevin came back quickly and said he had sold his 63 over a year ago and that it was to a person on the east coast. He also cautioned me about doing business with new members.

As far as I am concerned, my opinion is that Cyber4342 should be banned from TRF as a scammer and everyone should be very leary of doing any business with him whatsoever. I have kept all correspondance with him which are PM's and emails with Lig4u in case a moderator cares to pursue this issue.
