Scam Warning
- Thread starter HB Chris
- Start date
Just today I was nearly scammed by a buyer on marketplace... Fake PayPal email sent to me about a need to upgrade to business account to unlock the money
Saw that but couldn’t find it later. Outside of the price being too good to be true, every listing on his page is a different background. Guy would need to have 30 different floors in his house.
Another one.
Which FB group is this in? Good job!

He had the post I saw closed to comments. I just replied to your comments but my post is Pending. Report him to the Admins.

A lot of these scams are shared posts from a facebook page. You comment on the page and not the share, then the scammer deletes your comments. If possible, always comment on the group page that is sharing the scam, not the scam and age itself.
I did that as well but there is no place to explain why you are reporting it.

that tool guy is a total scammer , but yes beware there is an insane amount of scammers on all these different bmw facebook groups and they're actually posting desirable parts too , only do PayPal business if your buying from a new to you seller
thanks for the warning.
Another reason why i don't do facebook & such.
We can also just contact him with a serious question that involves him spending some time to answer them all. That will quickly have him loose his interest. His return-on-investment will go into the bad-idea category I hope.

My likeness is never used, not even for scams.

Yup these are pics from my HL washer faq.
Maybe it is that Group and not the individual posters?
Its funny how scammers go ballistic. I inquired about a Porsche that was too good to be true and asked a few questions. They lady went crazy with the profanity and what she told me to do. All this from a very simple question I asked. The message was very disturbing, to think people are out there like this.
He has returned in the “BMW e9 Csl“ group with a pic of someone else’s tools. I reported as Spam but there is no way to explain to the group Admin, others should report him as well. I just created a new post in that Group to the Admins.

Funny how most of the posts to that Group are irrelevant to e9s!
