A Daniel Lance advertised a 36 mirror clock on Facebook, balked and stopped communicating when I asked for a photo of him holding the mirror. Profile disappeared too.

Just received an e-mail in response to my ad on here. The name of the buyer is Mathers Rowley at a G-mail account. Wants to send me a cashiers check. Appears to be another scammer. Thought I would give people a heads up on this guy.

Jerry, since my computer was recently hacked you are correct in advising people not to click on the response/link. I won't go into detail , but if it looks suspicious stay away from it. I have since cancelled a Facebok account and an Amazon account due to the hack. Almost all of these hacks come from overseas.

I've put several items in the classified ads for sale on this website. Every so often i get an email saying they want to buy the item and request a price and a photo. Since both are in the ad. I figure this is some nefarious trick and never respond to the buyer. Anyone else seen this? This particular item had the price and 4-5 pictures in the ad! "Hello, My name is XXX, and i am interested in buying your 1952 NOS RADIO IN THE BOX,Please let me know the price and send me a current picture of it. I need your response. xxxxx
