Shouldn’t we try to figure out a way to have new members wait a while before they can sell stuff here? I KNOW we have written knowledge and warnings from our moderators, but maybe it’s time for a moderator to update the warnings and add Zelle.
Talk to the boss man. It has been suggested.

how about you can't post a for sale ad until you have positive feedback from buying or 100 posts and a full mailbox

Agree, I'm on an aquarium forum that won't let you post for sale items, until you have significant number of posts.

Or here you could buy in to the for sale section with FABO Gold.
That wannadrag guy is still around. I see he posted a 70 Road Runner for sale a week ago over on FBBO.
too many things have added up to him being a scammer and I have banned him from the site
Thank you kind sir. I do hope the OP is able to recoup something.
Maybe allow op to edit the title to include email address?
its in the first post, plus its already indexed by google

He had the 75 Duster on FBBO also, someone asked if L code car and he said was a 318 car.
I agree to certain number of posts before you can sell many forums in Australia were like that however most have died out. But full mailbox is a stretch i have maybe for messages if that lol
that was considered a long time ago and I decided it wasn't in the best interest of the site for various reasons. These scammers usually get caught by me or the systems I have in place. When they get by me there are warnings to the people who post WTB ads
As long as we keep lookin out for each other we can get um recognized. It's a shame people still get taken, people need to use a form of payment with buyer protection. It becomes pretty obvious (to me) when sellers want payment by some bullcrappy method without any protection.

The full mailbox was a bit of a joke. it seems everyone who tries to sell something ends up with a full mailbox
Try to post a WTB ad and see the warning people get when they are posting such an ad
I agree......Unfortunately, there are people that will jerk a seller around by submitting B/S complaints to eg) Paypal (remember the dude with the gas cap?). I for one will not take payment for a big ticket item using any form of payment that will open me up to get jerked around. I am honest, and represent anything I am selling openly with full disclosure. I would rather sell face-to-face.
Yeah that guy was a piece of work. We all told him that was not a factory painted cap and he went and listed it on eBay as a factory painted cap. Idiot. There's always one in every crowd.

Thank you. I appreciate all the support and apologize for making a huge deal out of it as a newbie myself. This site is awesome.
Somebody without a lot of posts get their name, address and phone number and Google it see if it all matches up.

The only thing I got out of it was a lesson learned and some guys offering the parts I was supposed to receive. It is what it is.
It sucks, but I reckon that's something. Just protect yourself from now on and only use payment forms with buyer protection. I hope you find the stuff you need.
Can you post anymore personal info? Name address etc, the more the better.

He claims to use his daughter's Zelle. I have tried calling the phone number and looking up the name he used "Pearson Reginald"
