This guy is peddling a "Beautiful ICOM IC-7700" using K6PBM as his call. I guess he forgot which call sign he has hijacked. The email address he is using is KB1MUL@gmail.com. Complete scam,stay away!

Yes, and he is still at work. He responded to a wanted to buy ad that I placed today. I saw the call and e-mail mismatch, but wanted to see what he would send as pictures for the radio. As I expected he lifted pictures from elsewhere on the web (eBay UK) and sent them to me. I did not inform him of the mismatch between the call and e-mail, just let him know I found the pictures elsewhere on the web that he pretended were his pictures. Definitely a scammer who is trying to separate honest people from their hard earned money.

I posted a wanted to buy add Sunday & Patrick B. Montgomery K6PBM responded by e-mail patrickk6pbm@gmail.com. In the several notes he has sent he wants me to send the payment of $65.00 to his wife Maryjo Mellor 5700 Windy Gorge St., Las Vegas NV. I googled the address and the house is high dollar and for sale. He never includes his call sign in his notes. I sent a note this morning telling him it sure smells like a scam. Beware.
