Default Re: Press kit scam

Sorry to hear that, for what it's worth we always tend to be more careful once we go through a bad experience like this once. Helps us be more vigilant in the future. Although doesnt make it any easier losing any amount of money, no matter how much it is. Sorry for your loss.

Curious btw, was the deal done via Paypal Friends & Family? I guess that's another red flag for many new sellers / scammers: they never deal via G&S.

Default PS1 and PS2 press kits
Hey, have you try asking Dadpunk1 about the PS1 and PS2 press kits he has to part out with ? If not i will advice you to ask him because the last time i spoke with him, it's still available and he wants to let it go for a very affordable offer.. Just got what i purchased from him yesterday.. You can email him for a fast response.. johncusack101@yahoo.com.. Have a nice day..

Indeed a few things were suspicious
I didn't check he was a new seller
I accepted the "Friends and family" without knowing him
For 50 USD and a guy who spoke perfect English I felt in trust
But I must admit I was so happy when he sent me the picture that I become too sure it was his press kit

He seems to be the same guy who contacted me back in May through "danutanennigzq62" (iirc hes banned) to contact lynchmendez@aol.com.

And yeah multiple PayPal accounts only throught friends and family.



If you pay attention when he asks a question he leaves a space before the "?" and all of his messages are always sent "from iOS/iPhone"...

Yea it's probably the same guy behind all these accounts
But he is smart and tries to make you believe he is a true collector and owns rare items you are looking for
But the pictures he sends are from Google image
Anyway we all have to be careful with these new guys
