Report Scam in AH Classifieds

Be aware guys, the scammers are on GB now too. Had a buddy just win an auction and the guy wanted payment through velle or venmo only and it was going to a different person. Buddy reported it to GB, but know that it is going on there as well.
I recently sold two items on GB and IIRC, direct payments like PP, Venmo, etc. are against the gunbroker rules for sellers.
 
That is what I read also. Its a good thing, as it keeps Uncle Sam from having a wandering eye into transactions that they can look to collect tax on.
 
I received a PM for a Wanted post I listed yesterday. Seemed weird the way he said to reach out to someone else via email. I Googled the email address and saw others reporting the emailer as a Scam. The price is obviously a little too good to be true.

looking for 300 h & h flanged ammo
Looking for shipping advice. I will be hunting in Limpopo in March, and was wanting to know a general idea of shipping costs to return my mounts to the US when completed. Air or sea? Only plains game hunting.

Good morning 7MAG. I have a NEW, never mounted, Leupold M8-4X Extended Eye Relief scope that I will sell you for $325 shipped to you. I was a Leupold rep for 12 years and this was always our preferred mounting for a lever gun, scout rifle style.

You’ve got an interesting screen name. Will the Thrill provided lots of great times for me as a lifelong Giants fan. Even though I never met him, a number of buddies either duck hunted or shared a dugout with him. He’s a great guy according to those guys. Cool screen name and if that’s your real name, it’s a great one.
