Default Scammer alert!!

Did not know where else to post this, so here we go. Posted a thread yesterday looking for an lt4 lid, I get a text message from Danjoe is the username on here, had a tall lid he agreed to sell me for 280 shipped. Got my money and blocked my number. I’m not tripping too bad because it was only $280 but wanted to let you all know about this piece of **** before he gets someone else +1 (929) 357-4576 is the number.


and this one just now.

well the son of a bitch got me lol I’m assuming they stole someone else’s lid pics because that’s what got me. I’m usually very smart about it, but I had been drinking and smoking yesterday and was off my A game 😂

Sometimes I reply to scammers with the phone number for the police dept.

I usually never hear from them again after that.

Thank you very much sir, sorry I posted originally in the wrong section. Glad I could save someone else’s wallet atleast for a few hours or days until they strike again.
