Title: Scam alert! Post by: collecture on August 29, 2009, 03:18:35 pm I recieved an email from this guy:
Mike Venable 120 Leicester Street London UK. +447032854710 He answered my SMC Classified ad concerning LD Mech Coin Parts - said he had them. I PM'd Dave to see if he could help as I was a little hesitant about the deal. The guy said he had 4 sets of the parts I was looking for, which is a little suspicious in itself. I can believe that someone may have one or possibly two, but four? I do need four if anyone can help, so take a look at my want ad. Let me know what you might have. Anyway - beware! This is a scam! Dave did a little Google search and I did as well. I found that he has tried this scam on several sites - bottles.net, etc. Title: Re: Scam alert!

I politely explained that to him and didn't hear back from him.
