    Posted a WTB Aimpoint Pro. Got this reply. Joined the Hide this am at 0800. Steering me to an email of a friend who has one for a great deal. Same old same it appears. Just a heads up.

    It's a flat out scam... I got the same shit when I post some WTB in an automotive forum.. I took the fun out of it by reaching out and the guy kept on sending me random picture of items people took on ebay or online.

    I like getting an address and sending them glitter bombs.
    everybody hates glitter. and if you dont whatever F you too.
    lots of good websites,
    10-15 bucks and you anonymously send an exploding tube of dick shaped glitter.
    its the small victories. really is.
    You sir, are a thinker.

    Here is some light reading from the last one of these threads. One of these times is going to be the end of the PX.

    I appreciate the post. I’m aware of it. I didn’t get scammed or cry foul, but wanted to make sure no one else did. A simple heads up. I assume the mods are busy mod-ing and would get to it in time. Until then, just watching out for the other honest members. No money lost, no complaining 👍

    Hey there,

    Im dealing with a possible scam as well. Reported both individuals involved. I’m curious if you heard whether your guy(s)were actually verified scammers and removed. Thanks!
     
    I have had a few of these, just don't reply and hit report. Mods will handle it from their. Don't be alarmed when the message also disappears... just part of the clean up process.

    Just be smart about selling/purchasing. If the deal sounds sketchy, move on.

    Report them,

    This is what we get in return for enforcing the rules, just now because someone was selling for their "cousin" and when questioned on the sale had to find out the details, so we banned them,

    His buddies tried taking up his fight and in response we get this:

    It happens a lot on here honestly. If I reported it everytime I’ve bought something then 10 more people be gone. But I get it someone didn’t like it from him. It’s ok cause everyone knows ur pretty much a midget cock sucker behind a key board anyways. That’s why most of the good people are gone. So I’ll exit myself from here so u can feel better from ur hide out

    Your guys were not scammers just assholes and then their buddy got involved and I ended up permanently banning all 3

    They act entitled like I owe them something, I have a serious zero tolerance feeling happening right now, if you want to test it, I promise it will not end like you want it too
