Jeff, the problem is if no one report to staff/admin, they do not know there is a problem.
when this thread showed an issue an investigation was started. but these things usually take a while to sort out.
and as you can see, the violators have been dealt with.
these scammers use multiple usernames, and it takes a while to wade through all the swamp sludge they hide in.
they also hack into verified long time users profiles and make it look it is the long time user answering you. this throws more roadblocks into the investigation. but lucky for all of us, we have dedicated staff members likeY2K that is very good at wading into those swamps and finding the offending critters for extermination......
i wish i was 1/2 as good as Y2K at that.

There are legitimate members here, Rich @77&79F250 , who sell parts, or forum supporters. Let’s see if we can summon rich, maybe he can look into it behind the scenes.
Sorry I was not made aware of this past scam issue, I just seen this thread in my "mentions" link. I hope it worked out for that guy that got scammed and he got his $ back. I am hard core in the 73-79 forum, any where else/any other forum threads that have bad behavior, I am not aware of. 87-96 F150 is not my forum to watch.
I try to cruise the 67-72 forum...but I am not there as much as I like. So if there is a bad deal happening, REPORT IT TO THE POWERS TO BE/SUPER MODS ASAP.
Bottom line to NOT send money unless you establish a solid FTE link/connection, back ground check them on FTE. Posting history, thread involvement ect.. Scammer are lazy dirt bags and do not put that much effort into it. I am not above getting a personal email address, phone number, heck even an actual address.
Ask for a text pic of the actual part. Yes all that can be BS'ed now days, so get them to mail the COD. Can you even do that now days?
