Re: I think myself and 2 other just got scammed by thefivemajors

yeah he just PM'ed me the same pic. I have a feeling what we may have here is just his wanting to please people from work or whatever and showing a scan of any stras auto so people wouldn't jump the gun. Not the best thing to do, but coming up with these 5 autos looks good, UNLESS he swiped that photo from who knows where, let the drama continue....



Kind of a stretch to think he'd be able to muster up a pic of 5 Stras autos with "All 5" written on the paper.

Yeah but look at how far away he is....it doesnt show detail. Cant see the authentic stamp well at all. No reason the pic should have been taken that far back. I still don't buy it though. Plus didn't he already supposedly ship one out? Just sayin....

thanks for addressing the situation

you have to understand people's concerns though




I was concerned myself, and I don't have any cash on the table in this deal.

Guys, if you have the means to do so, please video tape yourself opening the bubble mailers.


Yep, guy seemed ready to defend himself and then stopped posting.


Some of you guys throwing around the insults about these guys reacting the way they are, i'm pretty sure if it was your money, you'd be a little nervous as well...

I wouldn't have been.

It hadn't even been a few hours before he posted this.

If people weren't so freaking paranoid about EVERYTHING, maybe this wouldn't have happened.

Even jumping the gun and doing a chargeback TEN minutes later is ridiculous.

You're saying the circumstances before the scan would not have made you question the situation?

Seriously?

Seriously?

I would have questioned the situation, yes, but I would have contacted the SELLER directly...not attempted to drag him down and through the mud on the boards.

This was a classic over reaction by the OP.

They both received their end. One took long, yes, and the other received but left feedback early (Halonut). Not to mention their status on the boards means absolutely nothing when it comes to a deal.

Nice try though, chief.

a forehead south of your moms belly button
so... uhmmm... what happens if the op wins his claim? that he filed 10 minutes after the deal was finalized? is he repaying? shipping the card back? what? cause this leaves the seller in a situation of great uncertainty about his product or funds. so now the roles have reversed... also imo its pretty freaking uncool to dig up personal information then post it on the interwebz in a situation because you are paranoid.
