SOLD/EXPIRED Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25x50 EBR-4 MOA LNIB

He stated he shipped it through some WSPDL company. Have never been able to call anyone at this facility and email is just as much of a joke. Called James and finally got ahold of him, very broken english and pretty much gave me a run around. Now this company emailed me back and without providing any form of identification, by tracking number they want to give me $2500 after I western union them $300. Will attach email
 
That's awful. He was on the site 20 minutes ago, hopefully he will offer an explanation and either return your money or send the scope.

I tried to look up WSPDL on my computer at work...our security software blocked it as a "malicious web site". May not necessarily mean anything but I've never seen a legitimate business's website blocked like that.
 
M, sorry to hear you got ripped off. The English in the Western Union transfer request is extremely poor. Sounds like they are just trying to get you a second time.

I don't deal with anyone on this forum unless they have a few hundred post that are not sales post, and they are respected posters in the forums.

There is a forum to post feed back on buyers and sellers. I suggest you post the sellers name there with comments to help others.

Yeah the email looks like continuation of the scam. I'm surprised his birthday was not April 1...instead of April 3...

I recently had a bad experience with a buyer here...when in and looked at his postings...he is what I call a tire kicker...makes offers then doesn't follow through. He made two different offers and we were solid on the last one...poof he disappeared. I strated to do negative feed back on him...but he is always trying buy something...

What a shame. This a great site with a bunch of greats guys on it.
 
On top of all this, you're probably going to be deluged with spam emails going forward. These kinds of things infuriate me. Nothing but theivery and invasion of privacy. Hopefully, someone can develope a method of stopping this lind of crime.
 
" clearance tax stamp and transfer fee charges"

***??? clearance tax stamp? Who in the U.S. has ever heard of such a thing? Clearly an overseas scammer.
