Chased off another scammer today
Selling a guitar on FBM, guy asks if its available. Asks for a lower price, I agree, ask when he wants to meet.
He goes off on some incomprehensible story about getting stiffed yesterday, and Uber codes, I don't know WTF he's talking about, so I ask about the meeting time again. He asks if I've got a pick to go with it. Sure, Ill toss in a few picks LOL, when do you want to meet?
He asks about the strings, "metal" or nylon, I tell him steel strings, now he has to tell me about his favorite super slinky strings. Yeah, I like them, too, what time to meet?
ALL my adds say "ALL exchanges will take place at the [local] Police Station, CASH ONLY. NO exceptions." Its very clear.
He asks if I can meet at the bus station, 2 blocks away. If he can get there he can get to the police station.
I repeat: I only have 2 rules - Police Station ONLY, Cash ONLY. It protects both of us.
He instantly logged off and ended communications.
Dodged a bullet I saw coming from a mile away.
