Will do but I think it’s a loss cause. He had decent communication when taking my money. But after that.. zip.
Thank you.

I have Banned and Deleted member "Avalanche" from this Forum. Despite attempts to contact him he has failed to respond.

He tried scamming me too last year, Luckily i spotted the pictures he was using were not his and he re-used photos from this very forum.
I did try and inform the mods about this but unfortunately,I dont think they grasped what I was saying

Sadly this can happen on the internet. I have been badly scammed by a then forum member from the UK over 10 years ago. But I have to say that this was the first time in 18 years, and all other people I met here on the forum were always very friendly, helpful and trustworthy. Your advice is very good. It is always good to check for background information or make sure to see pictures of the actual item. But there is no guarantee.
