Not me, always use PayPal or other means of protection like Escow dot com and never accept a P.O. Box as an address.
Fraud and scam, how many of you are victims?
I was a victim of the most unpleasant experience just recently.I thought i was buying a preamp, but it proves i have been sending money to a scammer. It turns out the seller had been using a stolen ID and digitally manipulated photos.
I managed to get in contact with the fellow whos ID had been stolen, and it proves many more have been scammed like me. I'd like to point out that this is NOT through Audiogon, but another big sight.
Utterly painful when it's borrowed money. This makes me totally rethink any future purchase on the used marked.
I wonder how many of you fellow audio-friends have had this happen to you?
