Default Re: Got scammed by this guy thomas miranda on venmo

Eddie, a bunch of us were on here a few months back discussing this very
thing. It seems anybody that puts up a WTB ad gets an attempted scam.
My scammer sent me a picture of what I wanted, and it looked re-produced
rather than fresh. I asked him to send me a picture of it with todays newspaper in it.(Sounds like a ransom movie, I know). He said he lived in the country and wasn't near a newspaper. So I asked him if he had electricity, and he said yes. I said send me your latest electric bill. he couldn't do that either for some reason, so to satisfy myself one last time,
I asked how he wanted to be paid, and he said Venmo or PayPal friends and family. I then suggested he go forth and multiply, and hung up. Sorry
you went through this.
