Scammer Alert: W3FNZ imposter

Post by N8VZ »

Someone posing as Walt W3FNZ tried to buy a radio from me. It had all the red flags for a scammer: Wanted to pay by check (when I said PayPal or USPS MO only), offered to pay more than what I was asking, and his IP address was NYC rather than W3FNZ's QTH in Pennsylvania. I contacted the real Walt W3FNZ, who confirmed that it was not he that contacted me. So, beware of anyone posing as W3FNZ and using the email address of waltkorab@gmail.com. Walt's actual email address is on qrz.com. -- 73 de Carl N8VZ
