Lmao. What a t**ser. Good on you for rumbling his game.
Wonder what name he will operate under next.
Anther quick way to check authenticity, is to simply say "theres a lot of scams going on at moment can you please send me a pic with you holding three fingers above scope for authentication "( for example) or what ever you think would be good.

Be careful, because sometimes these won't look like scams at first glance at all.

Thanks Nunga!

You just saved me $300!!! Smile
I've recently been dealing with this prick as he contacted me via PM to say he had an HW95 for sale!

Luckily I asked many questions and his replies were inconsistent so I was getting frustrated.

Your notification couldn't have arrived at a better time!!!

Thanks!

I’ll start:

Scammer - Desmondtheman007
Email - edesmond258@gmail.com

As much as I’d love a $500 Diana 75, I’m afraid the one pictured was sold in UK with the same pictures!!
Ignore his emails
J S Airguns
