Posted a WTB ad and was returned with a PM from blueseawhale started researching his past post and became suspicious. Texted me some pics and was really over bearing wanting me to "...take his rifle..." very broken and poor English Grammar. Threw up too many red flags. If I am off on this one I apologize up front , but gut feeling says [/b][/u]NO WAY [b][u] on this one. Please be aware. Admin please research.
Thank You

"IF" If I ever post another WTB add, I'll require any replier to have x number of post on the sight I'm posting on, or good ID elsewhere.

The broken English and words that don’t fit are a dead giveaway. Great job alerting the group. It’s becoming to where I don’t want to deal with folks unless I know them or have dealt with them in the past. Shame is, I never felt that way a year ago.
Regards,
Nick- Georgia

Always talk with the buyer/seller, if he doesn't know [bleep] about the guns... don't ship/buy it

No problem. Glad I could help. Its really difficult to separate the people that like to surf and look for specific things that don't comment on posts with low post counts like I used to be which makes a seller leery b/c of low post counts and the scammers trying to separate a hard working genuine person from their hard earned money.

yeah the broken English and "take my rifle from me..." and also "NIB..." on a rifle that hasn't been in production in over 30 or 40 years that really has no collector value like a high end firearm....DEAD GIVE-AWAYS....LOL
I mean what true American individual that has any interest in firearms and protecting their 2nd Amendment rights is going to say "Let me know if you want to TAKE my rifle from me...." LOLPMP
