💵 For Sale SCAMMER ALERT

[Blue Sky]

Can you believe this guy? A guy claiming he is from Denver and will help us "weed out" the bad egg grifters.

His avatar picture is of a dock and a lake. There's not a Colorado Rocky Mountain in sight....

You got me. I’m not from Denver, I live in Pine.

At first blush, this response appears to be very unstatesmanlike....

The drafter would be an absolute shoe-in for a cabinet position.

I was thinking an upgraded Ambassador to Canada.

Then the scammer tries to secure payment ahead of shipment, either via a payment method with no buyer protection or through a fraudulent link if looking to fully swindle the victim. They run the same scam as many times as possible in as long as timeframe as they can manage without getting caught. Bogus tracking numbers are the next step.

Understood.
This simple on line dirt bag stuff escapes me, its never something i participate in, only local and clearly legit.
Thx.
