Scam list

Funny on some of the facebook forums as soon as someone posts a need for an item, someone new has the item and asks to "PM me" That throw up so many flags it would look like the United Nations building.

Add connectingworld to the list. They magically have all the off parts i need for posts that are many months old!

He must have an extensive parts inventory. He had the Ford backhoe engine I was looking for, too!

Just got a PM from "Nicolasrr". He has a Ford backhoe engine for sale (in response to my ad looking for one). No posts. Joined March 22, 2024

Looks like we've got a new one, "Patricia", "Her" ads are pretty easy to see through though.

Lost $50.00 to a guy on Facebook named Michael C Smith.

Own 5 720 garden tractors with associated equipment,1 620 garden tractor, 4 wheel 20
2-5015, 5020 and associated equipment and 2 electric forklifts.

Thanks much for your efforts!

Let’s keep this list to just the basics…just the name of the scammer and nothing else. If we keep this thread to just that the administration can remove the accounts with less difficulty for us.

I want all to know I had what i thought was a member mail me saying he has a friend who has the parts for my tractor i was looking for and here's his email, i then emailed him and he said I have your parts just give me your address and use Google pay for payment which I did. Next day i was on this forum and found another posted scam using the name (asak324) this is the same scammer who contacted me along with (Correa Joseph <correajo124@gmail.com>) and (Kainanryan5@gmail.com) (qcvtrades@gmail.com) I want all to Be on the lookout for these addresses . Unfortunately for them they picked the wrong guy to scam. Sometimes you don’t know who you’re dealing with.

I to received and e-mail from this piece of crap Jonnmark071

Another to add to the list I'm certain.

New member, no posts, and references a @gmail address for the gear I'm needing.

Yes, and looking into the profile, the Jonmark 071 is based out of the UK.

Scam for certain I'm thinking.

He did actually send a photo of some gears; none of which are anything like needed.

Here is the attached photo:

Usually when someone responds with a @gmail.com disposable email address without a phone number also, the red flag goes up. This coupled with electronic payment as the only option.....

I received this in the overnight hours from Jonnmark071 on a WTB gear from this site:

Contact Chris Jeff has a Gear for M&W gravity wagon trying to part out with and it's in excellent condition. You can contact him through christopherjeff286@gmail.com. You thank me later!

I sent an email to the referenced individual and got a reply. He wants $125.00 shipped for a small pinion gear. This is a cut from the response and the english is lacking:

Thanks for reaching out to me. Sorry for the late in response as i was very busy i just get chance to check my email now. Yes i still have the M&W Gravity Wagon pinion gear for model 400 and It has dual chutes available for sale in excellent condition. I am asking $125 shipped. And i will be shipping via USPS priority mail or FedEx whichever you prefer the asking price includes shipping. And will accept payment via PayPal. What's your complete shipping address?

Thanks.

Christopher.

Don't know if legit or not but not going to go further with it.

Just got another pm from johnmark071 overnight. If the clown is actually reading posts on hear, I'd think they'd figure out we're on to them...

I got the "You thank me later!" deal too. I can picture, in my mind, someone with English as a second language saying that.

Maybe he meant that you would thank him when you send money for something you would never receive!

Got a pm from a newly joined and never posted guy. But this time told me to contact another forum member that’s been a member for awhile.

Johnmark071 just tried some B...Sh.. with me. Add them to the list.
