Scammer responding to WTB classifieds - username jordan900

who do we report the scammers to? Coltglock45 is definitely a scammer

At the bottom of the dialogue box is a triangle with an ! in the middle of it. That's the report button.

Are you sure he's a scammer? He's been around for at least a little while.

There is a rash of hacking going on here the past several days. Someone is hacking older accounts and using them to post spam. I saw one this morning from a member with over 700 posts.

WTB = Want To Buy. Can't be the only one who would have to (and did) look that up.

Damn dude. Even I knew what it means.

I think given the scammers and the current political climate, it would be wise to make the whole forum "members-only" (by member, I mean the basic, free membership). I think it would discourage some of the shenanigans.

Lately I've taken to answering unknown calls with a "whoodat?" then lapsing to silence with the ball in their court. They usually quickly hang up.

Worked for me, thanks.

I don't know anyone's phone number, so when I get a call that says the caller ID is from my area and office code I answer. As soon as I hear an obvious Indian accent from a guy named "Mike" ask me "how are you doing today". I say, in my best Indian impersonation, "Thank you for holding, I believe you are interested in an extended car warranty. Please verify me the make, model, year and approximate mileage of your vehicle. That gets them off the phone pretty quick. Then I report the number to nomorobo.com so that number will be flagged and possibly save others from getting calls for the same scam.

I've been getting calls about my electric service lately. I hang on and get a 'service rep' on the phone. So far they have been 100% black. I find that when you get downright nasty to them, they hang up. Sorry folks but if you don't want to get treated that way, don't call my house trying to scam me.

I mess with them too. Don't bother to report because they are all spoofed numbers. I got a call from my own number. Guy from the save 35% on your electric bill tried to convince he was working for PECO.
