SCAM ALERT

[Whaledriver]

Heads up on a fairly elaborate scam. I posted "message sent" to an item in the classifieds. I get a text message saying "this is username from rokslide, yes item is still available, send me shipping info" I reply how did you get the number? He claimed I bought something before from him. Interesting, I am thinking. Try to call them and it just rings. Then I ask for Venmo. It didnt match name I looked up for phone. Then I asked for PayPal, now another name. I kept the comms going to get the "address" for a USPS money order. Bottom line is I used my number on a post back in 2017. Scammer looked it up to tried to impersonate the seller. Be careful out there. Here is the person/people to watch out for. DO NOT answer text messages like my dumbass. No, I never sent money.

Phone number used was (972) 331-8177

That happened twice yesterday to me on archery talk. Must be worse over there as I haven’t had that happen here yet.
