SCAMMER- Tikka x

[clbrown23]

Avoid dealing with Tikka x, I am attaching pictures of our conversation, it will show the pictures he sent me of the item and our discussion.

Also here is a link to the photos he used. I found this by simply Google searching the scope I was looking for and went to images. Wasn't hard to find. https://www.rokslide.com/forums/threads/leupold-vx5-hd-3-15x44.122300/

it obviously shows he stole the original photos from this post and photoshopped them

One other thing I noticed... on the DL he sent a picture of, the DOB is 5/17/1850.... that's right 1850

Posting this to hopefully help others avoid getting scammed by him, but also gives a few things to look for/do as buyers to protect ourselves from getting took.

Wow, born in 1850???

That thumb picture is ridiculous as is the floating scope. What a dirt bag. The scum can't even get a date on the ID anywhere near believable. Thanks for posting.

 

[SEGARE]

You should post this on all of the forums.

I can do that, my last text I sent him was the rokslide link, I told him I would be started a thread on here and that he should go delete his account. Hopefully he moves on but who knows, probably will just create a new account and keep scamming.

The software in these new phones make it easy to lift a picture,

IOS 16 update allows it, I am sure there are far more accurate and sophisticated apps out there

2 of my pictures, simply copy and insert into any background
