Sent money order for a shotgun to him but grew suspicious and had my package sent back to me. I went to call him but it was a weird text only phone. He went by username wembley. His address was 1344 Princeton Kenly Rd lot 24, Kenly, NC. Very fishy but didn't see the warning signs. Hope this helps someone else.
I used Google Earth and the address looks like a empty lot in a trailer park. Trailer trash.Always send Money orders with the USPS Than when this happens you can file a fraud report. The feds are pretty good at tracking these people down.Next time have the seller send you a copy of their driver license.
Thank you and I'm glad you didn't get scammed. This is a perfect example of why I said on another thread called "Scam Warning" that you should NEVER send money without being completely satisfied that you are dealing with a reputable dealer of private seller. Get a phone number and email through a PM Email them and request more pictures not just the ones they used in their ad. (The scammers will copy a picture from some other site) Call the seller and talk to him personally. More than once if you have more questions. If you are the least bit concerned DO NOT BUY IT! Good luck BTW, this guy wembley is mentioned in that thread titled "Scam Warning"
I did get a copy of his license, all info was correct but something still seemed off. I was lucky enough to intercept the envelope and have it brought back. He gave more pictures when I requested them, did a reverse image search and they came back clean. The trailer park is what made me uncomfortable and the fact that it was a text only phone and his profile was closed. I appreciate the Comments and I'm definitely more aware then I was before.
He is a scammer !! A little slicker than some...a story about he broke his back and neck, blah blah, blah !! Dirt bag for sure,,,,
He tried it with me too has horrible photoshop skills. also failed the common sense questions when he told me the Perazzi he was selling was on a citori frame when I gave him a choice of that and another ridiculous option. he told me he was in Maine sent me a picture of poorly photoshopped drivers license.
