scammer alert-"sammie-GTI"
« on: 01 November 2011, 20:14 »
Hi guys just a quick heads up, I paid for a anti roll bar 2 weeks ago from a member called "sammie-GTI" Ive messaged him/her on 5 occasions asking where my item was and they have failed all 5 times to message me back, so try and avoid this person for your own sake as im afraid they are a SCAMMER.
Ive opened up a paypal claim against them so hopefully ill get my money back!

Hopefully you get your money back through paypal and you never paid as a gift?
As people said he is a well know scammer on several forums under many names :angry:
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...
