Beware of this scammer USERNAME: tphk MEMBER ID: 208445. Below is a copy of the last message I got from him......What the heck, does he really believe that people are that stupid !!!



Hello Brent ,
Thanks for the response concerning the sale of the
''Planes Giles 202 ARF'',go get the advert off the web
and consider it sold, You dont have to bother about
the pick up but presently i am schedulled to leave for
holland on a business engagement and this will last me
five working days but i believe my trip does not stop
this transaction as i will be informing my business
associate in the state to make out a certified cashier
cheque of $ 7,500 to your care as soon as you receive
the payment you will deduct your cost price and
additional $100 then you will transfer the balance via
western union money transfer to the shipping company
that will handle the pick up of the ''Planes Giles 202
ARF'' the reason being that i have other consignment
which they will pick up for me,they will aswell
responsible for the signing of all titles relating to
this transaction and the pick up..
Kindly provide me with your full
name valid phone# and complete contact information for
the cheque delivery if my mode of payment is
considered and if i can trust you with my fund.
I look forward to doing business with you.
Regards............Thomas.............

We have banned this account and listed it on the scammers list. There have been a few recent news articles stating that the Nigerian government is taking a more active role in stopping these scammers. But for now, we all have to be wary of any offer that, like this, is too good to be true. Think about it, why would anyone want to send you more money than you are asking for and trust you to give a refund of the excess amount?

Hey sukhoi flyer, i just got one of these idiots tring to do this to me on a truck shell that im selling for 400.00.i was told that these people send you a counterfiet cashiers check and want you to deposit it into your account then you send a check out of your account for the remainder to his shipper meanwhile his rubber check bounces and your good money is long gone! I guess theres different ways there working this but in the end the seller looses . theres an internet fraud division of the fbi that has a complaint section i think its ifcc/fbi but dont quote me on this.I found it by typing in internet fraud in the brouser.Watch out sellers!!!!!!!Regards ,Bushwacker404

This is why we so strongly warn folks not to accept offers made through the Ask Seller a Question tool. The scammers do not want to use the site tools for communication as they know they will be banned within an hour or two of the time they send out their offers. They want to get you in email where they can continue baiting you along even after they have been banned.

I just got a message from " tphk " to buy my 40% Edge, He must still have an account with RCU ???...........Rick

Rick,
Was the message sent through RCU or directly to your email? We deactivated his account last night so he couldn't have sent anything through the site since then.

I just looked at your ad and show the message was sent at 8:11PM last night. He was banned within an hour of that time. If this is the first you have looked at your email since yesterday, it could appear that it was only just sent.
