What address you send money to?

 

[hammonje]

Used $1000 Zelle and $500 Paypal FF

Asked for refund. Will see if refund is provided. Use advanced search for username: Longdrive. All posts from Nov 16 through Dec 3.

I'm a freaking idiot. Don't be like me and do your homework.

Jason, when you pay via PayPal Friends and Family there is no recourse.

Sorry but if the deal doesn’t go through you lost the PP money and if they fine out it was for a firearm even worse for you.

Just put it out here so folks can be aware. Sure I could be embarrassed because of my gullibility and not say anything. Not that proud anymore.

Longdrive also sold another rifle to another member here about a week ago. I responded to add stating would like more information. Someone else here likely bought rifle. Believe member was unkola. Could be wrong.

Jason , sorry to hear but yes I would guess you are out the $$$
How about the other rifle that was sold on forum, has that member heard from Longdrive?

 

[hammonje]

Not sure.

Zelle went through my bank. so can dispute and perhaps recover funds. Sent scammer link to this post.

Was Unkola. I've contacted him.

I have been in communication with him, He will be refunded tomorrow morning, don’t know what the bickering is about.

Jason, I am so sorry you got taken, as you know there are a lot of liars out there, even here on this forum!
I took a look at that listing and saw way too many red flags…if its too good to be true.

That didnt take long.................

 

[hammonje]

Tried to reverse image search all photos on Google. No hits. Must've taken pics and description from some earlier sales thread. Description was very accurate and this lowered my defenses. Heard nothing concerning other sales thread. Figured unkola would have said something here. Then I started to think about it some more and dug a bit. Feel awfully dumb and at the same time violated.

Longdrive has an IP address linked to Nigeria and had a shared IP address “Peralta” who was banned earlier.

I will go ban him now so no more damage can be done, but this is a scanner profile for sure.

I have posted this many time before, but will post here for reference - I will make a separate general post as well.
