More and more scammers on this site. Thomas Adkins, seems to be the new one. Replied in my post with an email then emailed me with another email and pmed me after I said no thanks. If you go to your profile settings you can make it where your email can't be seen. I'm assuming that will fix the issue.

Sorry sir.

I’ve purchased an item from you and it was a positive and simple transaction

When you say “more and more scammers on this site”, who else are you referring to? I’ve bought and sold many times on here and have never had any interactions with scammers.

Just one more. Don't remember the name another member posted about it before. Same deal will email you with what you want and only wants to talk thru email or text and only wants electronic payment.

Any forum with a BST will have a rise in scammers. It’s gotten wild since they can claim they will ship an item to you. Scammers are no longer from across the pond. They are homegrown idiots taking hard earned money.

Only had dealings with one low life on here.
Wanted to buy an A5 Belgium Browing in 20 ga. He had listed for sale. He had every excuse for not being able to meet.
I finally asked if he had the gun, communication went south from here.
I was going to blow him up on here but he took his add down and faded away.

Way too many people on the trading post selling items they don't own, usually selling for a family member or a friend.

This is starting to be a magnet for scammer

Look at the Non Hunting Trading post today, I noticed 2 different seller with 4 threads going about selling stuff, is there no one who keeps an eye on Trading post section.

This is the rules: 8. Do not have more than 3 active threads going at once.
