I want that attack from Mars, however, they only seem to accept direct bank transfer and Bitcoin... I wouldn’t trust it.
You could see if they will have a conversation with you to check for red flags but typically if it seems too good to be true it probably is.
Quoted from ToolMan469:I also looked at a machine from this site. They texted me back right away, then got to the payment. I said no way to the wire transfer. They said their CC payment gateway is currently undergoing updates. I said no way. So they said then they would take COD, but via Google Play cards and I had to get the cards prior to ship and show proof I had them. I assume I would have to give them the codes to verify they were valid which at that point they could take those codes and use them without the cards. So I said no to that. They said they have been only doing online purchasing and only shipping since COVID. I was able to chat with them online to say I wanted to physically see the machine and pick up myself. The address they gave me is 44 Rosa Parks Ln San Francisco CA 94103. Anyone close to there can verify what is at this location? I tried Google street view, but cannot get down that street to see what is there. I am in Texas. I would like a machine from there as well, but man, it just seems like a scam.
Contact them and let them know you are at the location and see how they react.
