bossbasl messaged me based on a wanted ad. Classic scammer tactics: says a friend has the swords I want and to text for details. Zero posts on the site. Beware this user name and this pattern of behavior! Also, googling his phone number confirms, known scammer.

It's so bad nowadays on places outside the forum. I remember I was selling one of my pieces on ebay, the individual bought my sword then turned around and demanded I text him after refusing to pay and then cancelling the transaction. And there's not a thing you can do other than having to wait a certain amount of time to cancel the transaction from your end entirely. And iv been witness to a lot more than that, but yeah that's classic scammer tactics.

Sorry, bossbasi was banned a day or so ago. Keep up the good work and let us know if there's any more of these.
