Hello fellow SBG friends,
Was recently contacted by a user named dyami, new user responded to my Wtb post. Asked me to contact his friends email address, gave him the benefit of a doubt, asked for photos of what he said he had, no response. Please be careful friends, don't want any one to be out money, on a bad deal.

As a rule, I don’t respond to anyone who hasn’t been a member here for awhile - with a post history.

Speaking as someone who just posted their first WTB, I can't tell you how much I appreciate these threads. Thanks all!

Same here: John37 and libertya607@aol.com I feel like the "AOL" email address could be a tip off.... |

Had the same happen to me on my WTB. I was messaged and told to contact Chris at some aol email. I asked the kid to have Chris get a hold of me on here and all communication stopped
