Quoted from gjm:Robin/moderators, please don't lock this thread. The more information that comes out my save others in the future and possibly help the ones that were scammed.
Robin, You yourself have a "sticky" thread: "Attention! Don't get scammed!" So let this thread live as well.
From Robin's own Thread;
Attention, dont get scammed.
Dear Pinside.
I'm posting this topic as I've been seeing an increasing amount of people getting scammed through marketplace ads in the past few weeks. I have been investigating this quite extensively and wanted to share with you what I found out, and at the same time warn you all to be careful sending money to strangers.
Note: in this topic, I'm specifically talking about online scams. Where you pay for a game and then nothing is shipped.
Old topic should never been closed. Bill is a victim of his own problem and Jonathan is playing him like a fiddle.
