No, I did….. I can't stand scammers and if I can get them cheesed off that someone is reporting their crap,
then good.
As far as I'm concerned any website selling any large ticket items should have some sort of verification process. The scammers are just pulling ads and pictures of the net and it's a free for all.
Again, never but never sent cash or money to anyone via Western Union or by mail for a deposit, even if the seller is screaming at you that someone else is pulling into the driveway to take YOUR trailer. All the scammer wants is the $500-1500 your sending as a deposit.
The scammer is counting on the amount being too low for you to overcome your embarrassment and phone police. They also know that being from another jurisdiction, the police will tell you it's a life lesson.
If we all follow the Golden Rule, "If it sounds too good to be true, then it's a scam" we wouldn't hear about these @$$h0le$ ever again.
Glad you weren't taken.
Cheers
Tony
