Site to avoid
Gunlistings.org.. avoid like the plague, im new here so I apologize, if this is inappropriate, or in the wrong section, as a LEO just want to put the word out if anyone isnt aware.
Just about every post from across the country comes back as one of 3 individuals (who may or not be all the same person).
The normal procedure is to advertise something for an unbeleivable price, (which should be red flag #1 especially now)
Most of the ads have been listed for quite some time, (red flag #2)
The reason given (aka the Con) for the price is usually something in desperation such as needing the money for medical reasons, either for the individual themselves, or for someone else.
Then theyll suggest you send Western union money order, PRIOR to them shipping (red flag #3).
If other arrangenemts are made, such as sending th MO to the FFL, to be picked up upon delivery if the item in question, you will receive NO further contact from said individual, the FFL is often in another state from that which is listed in the ad as well
The ad will list one city, however when you ask where they are shipping from it will be from another city entirely
Ex (ad says AZ, but the sellers address is in CA, and will use a FFL in TX)
The safest bet is to meet FTF
Just wanted to put the word out if it wasnt already
again I apologize if this is is innapropriate, or in the wrong section
