Sorry to hear about your loss to this scammer. We have banned him and sent a warning to everybody he contacted via PM. I'd strongly encourage you to report your loss to an appropriate law enforcement agency. If they will contact the IB legal department, we'll be glad to cooperate in helping them bring the scammer to justice.

We aren't able to monitor PMs, so we don't know the scam is on until someone lets us know.
The quickest way to nip scams in the bud and dispatch the scammer is to report the suspicious PM by clicking on the triangle outlined in red at the top right of the PM.
Doing so immediately sends a copy of the suspicious PM to moderators and administrators and allows us act. Posting a thread is okay, but the thread may not be quickly noticed or reported to moderators/admins.
We’d strongly encourage you not to post your personal contact information in WTB threads. Doing so allows spammers to bypass Corvetteforum, making it more difficult to report their suspicious activity to moderators. It also keeps us from knowing what user ID they are using on the site.
