    Default Potential Scammer a "member" here

    Found this on another site and remembered seeing that this guy posts here occasionally in the classifieds under the Bigb00mer name. Didn't know where to post it so I put it here and mods can move it as they see fit. Heres the link to the thread:

    I highly recommend reading the entire thread. Especially when the scammer responds to the posts. Great stuff.
    Not sure what you mean. Ozlek is not the scammer mentioned in the other site threads. PAFOA's "Bigb00mer" is still active, is also an out-of-state user (Georgia vs North Carolina), and also posts mostly classified ads, often for reloading equipment. I don't see bad reviews in a quick search. May be a different southerner using the same name.

    So, what were you trying to say?

    Gunlawyer is correct this bigb00mer character is a different fellow, what made me remember him was a few months ago he had a 7mm-08 posted here for sale and I was looking for one at the time and thought about contacting him but then noticed he was listed as from georgia, and as I like to actually see a firearm before purchase, I didn't respond to his ad. If you read into the links I have posted above it seems to be a man and his wife who are running this alleged scam on various firearm and shooting classified sites and they give thier locations as NC and GA and use various usernames. Just wanted to let everyone know since this "bigb00mer" posts classifieds here.

    That was my mistake. One of the alias' I thought I recognizes as Ozlek's. Please disregard my post.

    Any update on this? I almost did a trade with suspected member but had 2nd thoughts due to fact he was so far away. Even talked to him on phone.

    Just thought i'd refresh this as this username (bigb00mer) has current classified ads. See the link in my OP and second post and make your own decision on choosing to do business with him.

    Just another addendum that someone contacted me saying that the guy mentioned in my first link is from NC and the "bigb00mer" guy on here states he is from GA. If you read the second link I gave- on page 6 post #117 he, under another of his online alias also uses an address in Meldrim,Ga, which is the one he uses here. Again Buyer Beware!

    I'm surprised at how many things he's trying to sell here. Does he know that people are on to him? Maybe he just likes to play the odds I guess.
