Yeah I think I may have been taken for a ride. Sent him 90 bucks PayPal for some brass, now I see that he’s been banned. No communication.
I'm sorry that happened.

He's a well known scammer and he will steal from you. Avoid him at all costs. I reported him to No_2 and on here.

Sorry to hear that you lost some money. We received a report from one of the members that JessyS was a suspicious seller, and following a short investigation he was banned from the Forum by No_1.
Things to be suspicious of:
New members with less than 30 days membership and 30 posts attempting to sell. Both conditions are required to be met before posting WTS ads. When the Forum Staff either finds or has such an ad it is moved to the Swappin' & Sellin' Trash and the new member warned.
A new member who has not yet met the requirements to post a WTS responding to a WTB ad placed by yourself with an offer to sell.
Offers "too good to be true" usually are just that. We can't protect you from yourself, so you need to exercise due diligence before ordering. You can do your own sleuthing by checking a prospective seller's reputation on other forum sites.

Yeah I'm not complaining; just relaying what happened. I believe his real name is Charles Gacheru (according to PayPal). He was smart enough to make a very reasonable offer (not a Too Good To Be True one), so having dealt only with the great folks here at Castboolits for about a decade I lumped him in with you and sent him some money. Live and learn.
