Scammer Impersonatier
Hi
A scammer is impersonating Vinceb, Vince Bellisimo from Timepieceperfection. Don't fall for it. Sending out emails saying he got some good deals on some watches, and wants to sell them, saying they are his brother-in laws. This is the scammer: vince@timepieceperfection.com 917-768-4701 Phone number is a known scammer phone number. Jeff |

Is there any more info on this? Vince, can you respond and let us know what is going on? The same thing happened to me and I was ready to ship my watch this afternoon, but now I’m hesitant until I get confirmation. Can you respond and verify if your account/email was hacked (or more specifically if you have been the one communicating w me over the past 24hrs?).

Update: I called Vince at his store and sure enough, he wasn’t the one who contacted me. So, what happened is someone was sending off emails that looked like they came from vince (very convincing) saying “Hey Andy, if you have any watches you want to sell I’ll give you a great offer”. He offered me $9k and said he’d wire the money or send paypal. He said he’d email me a Timepieceperfection fedex shipping label. Then, last minute says his mom is sick and he’s flying to Florida and wants the watch shipped there.
Don’t fall for it (like I almost did). I may still sell my DJII but probably only in person at this point. Thanks for posting the original message (by the way, I received those emails too about wanting to move a couple Daytona’s and giving a great deal on them). I’d suggest anyone who does business w Vince (who is a great guy), call his shop and speak directly with him to make sure it isn’t one of these POS scam artists out there. I’m still pissed I almost got taken. Andy

Last post.... The scammer’s number that he used this time was: +1 (404) 975-2072 and the email address he’s using is: vince.timepieceperfection@gmail.com (even though the email’s signature line has the correct one, when you click on the name this is what shows). What a scumbag

Good for you Andy. Man I cant stand thieves! I wish there was a full proof way to make sure they cant steal from the forum members. The older I get the more I dont trust.
