Scammed by member MJW

Or... now hear me out.... PM each other phone numbers and have a conversation prior to sending a complete stranger you met on the internet hundreds or thousands of dollars....

I've bought and sold quite a bit on here and EVERY SINGLE TIME there has been a conversation, and most of the time the conversation goes on for 30+ minutes and we both end up having questions and suggestions for one another... Pretty easy to use discernment.....

For the love of all that is holy, please heed the bolded portion and only PM your number.

Very few accounts are being hacked to scam. Most of the accounts are FNGs. Not allowing access or requiring 2FA really wouldn’t solve the bulk of the problem.

The account referenced is from 2018. Then the other account who scammed a few for swaros was a similar account that was old but hardly used. They seem to be the popular choice to be hacked. And I would bet a crisp $100 they all didn’t have 2fa

All of the Bigfoot scams have been existing account created more than a year ago.

WTS Thread 'Scammed By VooDoo6 ( his account was hacked)'

Jul 7, 2025

Got taken for $600 from a fella who hacked VooDoo6 account replying to a WTS post for a Tikka Hnt 26 chassis. I was able to turn up the phone number of the real VooDoo 6 member and confirmed he was in fact not the scumbag who got my money. I was playing fast and loose and saw his account had been around awhile, was "classified approved" and had dozens of positive feedback scores, I paid with F&F, my fault for not requesting a phone number and confirming identity.

Just an FYI for others, I did a trade plus cash for this transaction, he gave me an address to the Postal Plus in Dalton...

Dang will that ain’t worth a crap. At least you were able to retake your account

Luckily I noticed within about 8 hours. I was able to warn a few potential buyers..unfortunately one guy was successfully scammed. I will say the communication between him and the scammer was like textbook scam/red flag material FWIW.

I now have 2 factor and a better password although my original was fairly complex. Still don’t know how the heck they were able to hack me.

Must be more common than I thought.
