FWB 100 F/S SCAM on AA

Post by Gwelo »

WARNING: This ad on American Airguns is a total scam http://www.airguns.net/classifieds/show ... rOfPages=5

It was lifted word for word from GunStar. I emailed asking for pics and he sent me 5 that he copied from the ad here http://www.gunstar.co.uk/fwb-feinwerkba ... uns/914175

I looked up his IP address and found it was in Dallas, TX. I inquired where he was from and he replied GA, red flag #1. His listed name is Jeremy Jackson, likely a fake. Email address is waltco144@gmail.com

Price of $575 is red flag #2. These usually sell in the $800 area especially as it is listed in mint condition, original manual, docs, etc.

He has another scam ad which is also pulled off GunStar: http://www.airguns.net/classifieds/show ... rOfPages=5

If it sounds too good to be true.......

Yes, reported it to AA before noon but the FWB100 ad is still running. I asked the scammer for his address to send the MO but no reply, think he bailed.
