Scammer posing as ham

For reports of scammers using other people's callsigns. Remember that any callsigns listed in this forum are likely innocent bystanders (subjects of identity theft) and, thus, are probably not guilty of anything. For bad transactions with verified ham operators, use the Feedback Forum instead.

Scammer posing as ham

Post by RussKW6T »

Today, a scammer posing as Jussi-Pekka Sampola. This scammer was obvious, and I confirmed it by contacting OH6RX, the real Jussi-Pekka Sampola from Finland. He confirmed he has not been recently buying/selling on QTH.

Another suspected scammer identified as Lee A Mannchen who stated his callsign was WS4BS. All checks out but no email connected to his QRZ page. I offered to pay by US mail; this was declined preferring Zelle. I asked for a phone number--response: Okay. Nothing else heard.
