Be aware of this guy!

I was in the process of finalizing a deal with a user named Walltz but right before the deal I somehow found an older listing from back in April of 2017 on TRF by a user named "randomguy"

randomguy's fs posting - https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=530306

Walltz's fs posting - https://www.rolexforums.com/showthre...highlight=sd4k

Walltz took the exact same pictures from randomguy's fs post and is using them as his own.

I've contacted "randomguy" to see if "Walltz" purchased the watch from him but "randomguy" confirmed that he has never sold to "Walltz" before.

I do not recommend this seller! Stay Away

Your first link goes to the joke section?

Corrected

Where is this scammer located, was it in Alaska?

[tonydjoh@gmail.com]

Nope. Well according to the wire instructions he sent me, This seller is located in Rhode Island, zip code 02920.

I’ve pulled his FS thread and asked him to explain via pm.
Thanks for being up on this.

I wired money to Walltz money several days ago for that Sea Dweller he posted and he has not provided any info about sending the watch, and now seeing this thread I think I'm out a bunch of money on this... This was going to be my first transaction on TRF. Really don't know what to do about this.

I feel sorry for you , but I'm sure you don't want to gear this but you've been scammed and most likely you won't see that $$ again.

These scammers are good, they use stolen bank info and withdraw the $ from the account, it's been happening for a while, buy the seller , don't trust email references (they're always fake)., He's so Fu$$%^& that he used stolen pics from here.

[HTS808]

Yeah, I'm sure your right. His past posts suggested that he had done at least several transactions on TRF so he seemed ok, but I'm guessing that was all manufactured. One of the moderators suggested I contact my bank and the police so I guess I'll do that, but I'm not sure if that'll accomplish much. You're probably right that he used someone else name for the bank account that I wired money to. After this, I'll probably only feel safe buying from the AD. Kinda sad.

[cop414]

I’ve just banned walltz, HTS808 please let me know what I queried you about via our PM.

[tonydjoh@gmail.com]

Sorry to hear that... that is why I made this post so honest people on this forum wouldn’t be affected.. as the above post stated, you should only deal with reputable users on this forum. Do not trust email references!

That's for sure. I just wish I hadn't sent him the money prior to seeing your post about this. There are definitely guys on here looking to scam. And I believe he created some accounts on TRF that he makes posts under to create the impression of real members that he then uses to act as "references". I've sent some info on that to the site facilitator.

[southtexas]

Damn, sorry to hear this. Was your bank able to reverse it?

Removed.

Nice job guys, I should have caught that when I banned him.

[tbonesteak]

Above all, when transacting for something like this, you need to know who you are dealing with.

One question I say everyone has to be able to answer before making a purchase:

If doomsday strikes, am I 100% confident I know who I dealt with (where they reside, work, etc.). There are a bunch of other things, but if you can't answer that question, don't send the funds, ever.

Sorry about the scam HTS, karma catches up to these lowlifes... Most of them don't have a pot to piss in anyways.

[Lime]

Sorry to hear about the individual that got scammed, hopefully you can track him down

[HTS808]

Thanks for the support guys. I'm pretty much resigned that the money is gone. I've filed a police report but I'm not sure how far that is going to go. He was using at least one other TRF account as a kind of shadow member to act as a reference and I believe that account has now been banned as well. If I buy on the forum again I'll definitely only be doing so from one of the guys on the "who's who" forum with a lot of positive history.

[cop414]

Dang Chris, I’m so sorry to hear this.

[pilotjim]

I'm so sorry to hear this! I was scammed myself but was fortunate to get a refund through paypal. I hope you can get your money tracked down...... maybe through the bank?
