Doc Fill 'Em 67797 Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 I put a WTB ad in the Classifieds looking for a Marlin Cowboy Competition in 45 Colt. Look at the PM I just received. I might play along and see what happens.
Doc Fill 'Em 67797 Posted March 11, 2023 Author Posted March 11, 2023 I’m going to email “robertosantiago257” and see what he has to say.
Old Man Graybeard Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 He has been hitting a bunch of people. I have reported him...as have a couple of others
Not Dead Ed Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Clearly a scammer. Looked at his member profile. No alias, most likely a bogus member number, local club says “firearms”. Not to mention missing fundamentals of English grammar and syntax.
Doc Fill 'Em 67797 Posted March 11, 2023 Author Posted March 11, 2023 I just emailed him and he sent pictures of the “Marlin Cowboy Comp”. The scope will come in handy for those long distance targets. Great price too!

Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Replying to scammers is fool’s errand, even if you think you’re playing a game. That just verifies they have a valid contact which will now be spread globally to other scammers.

I’ll work a deal at half his price.
Doc Fill 'Em 67797 Posted March 11, 2023 Author Posted March 11, 2023 The note says it’s a Marlin Model 60 with a Simmons scope.
Doc Fill 'Em 67797 Posted March 11, 2023 Author Posted March 11, 2023 I asked him for a picture of the serial number before I would send him the money. He sent this:

Shepherd Book Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 He hit me up tonight also from an older post....SB
Doc Fill 'Em 67797 Posted March 11, 2023 Author Posted March 11, 2023 He deleted all of his messages to me. I feel so hurt
