Scammer alert!
Despite my usual caution, looks like I got caught by a scammer for a lot of /6 parts for my Big Brother project for my little brother. Guy started offering one part, then another, and another...all at bargain prices and help with the shipping cost. Had his boss allegedly giving a bargain on shipping, but needed to get it paid and shipped before the boss left on vacation on Friday...blah, blah, blah. Sent the $ (had to be friends and family otherwise PayPal would hold payment for 21 days, etc, etc).
Sent the cash and the guy becomes a ghost. No shipping confirmation, no replies, etc.
I know, I was the sucker. All, please be forewarned if you ever hear from him. I will gladly retract this if he somehow proves me wrong, but I’m thinking I have to find him and pursue legal action.
