keiser31 Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Technical difficulties, my butt! Any time they don't/can't post or send a photo, it's probably a scam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john hanson Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 You may be right on the scam But I do about anything not to have to send pictures here.

MCHinson Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Bob,If the contact was made through the AACA email system or the AACA PM system, you should have the sender's forum user name. If so, please post that and I will ban the user. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ak Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 The scammer simply tells you what you want to hear. You lead him into regurgitating what you told him. No photos means scam. Scammer: I have the parts you need, I want this much for them. What parts? You ask: does it have the brackets still on it? Scammer: Why of course it does. You ask: Does it have the handle? Scammer. Why of course it does. When one deals in the old car fraternity, one generally lets their guard down. Remember, folks that reply are not always members of the fraternity and do not play by the rules. I have advertised for 1911 Franklin parts for a speed car I am doing. You should see the responses I get. Its a gas. I always ask if the zorch wire is still attached, and invariably I get, "yes the zorch wire is still attached." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
