Getting similar pm from “wilshire” somebody.

I can’t get back into pm’s once I've opened it, but he’s only been a member for a few days.

Ludwig wilshere is banned from the forum/group. If they are still contacting members using the PM system, that is a tad bothersome. I’ll look into the particulars on that.

Yep, I got hit a couple of days ago by this POS! He gave me an email address of someone called Martins Rodriguez who had a 14 inch Duraline drum head for sale. Sent him the funds via an Amazon card (my sister did it for me). He used the card immediately of course so no cancellation could occur. I've questioned him repeatedly. No answer. No head. Ahhh!!!

Hi, Tommy!

I think someone may have tried to scam me again! Since I solely am lacking in computer skills, I didn't know how to forward the message in my inbox to you. It was written by a Thomp97. When I tried to find some info on him, nothing could be learned. Please feel free to go to my inbox, under"14 inch, 8 lug die cast snare side rim." Something is definitely fishy with this message. Thanks, sir!

I just wanted to let everyone know of two scammers on Facebook Marketplace named Teresa, and Lourdes P. Both (they could be the same person), contacted me regarding some drum cases I had for sale, and I guessed right away that they were both POS scammers. Be aware of these names and don't fall for their BS.

Both had photos of young women attached, and their English was less than ideal, tipping them off right away.
