Correct. Scammers have been hitting us hard so I have the whole forum on lockdown. Some things you can see when not logged in but to see S&S you must be logged in. The latest scam was to find a ending S&S sale then create a screen name exactly like the seller’s but with a period (.) either before or after it. Once created they notified the winner of who to send funds to which of course is not the seller.

That is actually a pretty good idea. Kinda surprised (j/k) :drinks:

I stay signed it so I have to hit the FORUM button first and then the S&S shows up. Now I know why.

Thank you for the hard, never ending work on the site. More to turning on the tap and having a glass of water come out.

Thanks fellers, I was not logged in and couldn’t see it, then logged in to ask the question lol. Yes, good to see efforts to combat scammers. It’s just the new reality and effort is the only weapon that doesn’t become obsolete I’m afraid.

Hey #1 ..next time you get one of those bogus deals send me the address and I will mail a "special" overnight small box to the "Seller"

I have a swamp full of critters with nasty attitudes that can and will stop that egg sucking .. OK OK I promise to use a rubber one on the first pass

I got 2 emails from scammers when I posted WTB for a couple of items.
Thankfully I saw the post about the scammers and didn’t bite!

Thank you for all y’all do!

Where I work, email has become almost untrustworthy due to scammers.
