Easy way to avoid being scammed... don't buy phones from new users who have like a 30 post count, if that. I'm surprised people fell for this, to be honest. Also, sending money as a gift/donation bypasses any Paypal fees, so people who are forreal might ask you to send it like that anyway, or ask you to pay the extra.

Even though I have never used the Market section of this site, it's nice to see you being so vigilant on this and safeguarding the users who do use that section.

It sucks when sleazebags like this person exist and do the things they do. I guess the moral of the story is, if it's too good to be true, then avoid it at all costs without doing some SERIOUS investigating.

Especially when she's had her Razr for 2 years... :rolleyes:

Oh I've had Razr phones for 2 years now. Just got a Maxx yesterday though :)

I thought it was something fishy about that transformer post. I don't know why but I kept getting an uneasy feeling whenever I seen it.

Well known, trusted. These were 3 new members who made an intro then immediately went to selling.

Good work. Don't really understand why people fight things like swappa. They exist for a reason.

I wondered why this sphincter wanted to sell an Asus tablet to purchase an IPad. It didn't make any sense.

Is there any way we (or you :P ) could report this to the internet police and have them figure out where this guy lives and then we all (or just you :lol: ) show up to his house to kick his face in? I'd prefer that too lol

Why does it say I only have 1 post? Now no one is gonna trust me either :(

I for one am very happy to see this is being taken care of. I hate to see members be victims of scams here.

I am actually a bit shocked you all found addresses for these people (Whether they are real or not). Never the less, you scam us, we will find you. :D

Wow not much of a poster but good catch! Also a baby picure or a hot girl as a avatar makes them seem legit and when someone puts out there they have a certified pay pal account that is fishy to!
