Davebe the scammer is back

Beware of the pm’s suggesting someone has an item that you have posted that you were looking for on the BST. Can’t believe that the mods haven’t banned this guy yet.

    I also got a PM from him. Obvious scammer. I'm sure the forum moderators already know about this guy. I'm not sure why he hasn't been banned yet. Caveat emptor.

    Because forum members have both been scammed and tested him previously.
    Post a WTB ad for a 1964 peace dollar. He will tell you he has one in good condition.

    The “person” emailed me pictures of an 1881 coin as representation for the 1888 request.

    Definitely a scammer.

    Try a reverse image search - he probably stole the picture from Google or eBay.
