Angry Another Scammer Alert-

My scammer antenna went up instantly when this guy (scion4), who just joined the site today, started browsing the Parts Wanted ads. He sent me an email referring me to a third person (Allen) that can "fix me right up"! The only thing Allen can do is try to take my money! Sorry...not happening.

Well, I received an email from this sight that I had a response to one of my posts. It was this guy scoin4, but I didn't see anything on my post he was asking if the part was still available. so, I responded on my post that the part was still available and now my post was removed by a moderator for reposting the part in less than a month. PERFECT

If it weren't for the scammer, who was banned, inquiring, which was deleted to prevent any malfeasance, there would not have been a bump. No harm, no foul.

Sorry about that. I was hoping nobody was scammed before scion4 was banned.
