N2EMA Listing #1111226 - POSSIBLE IDENTITY THEFT

Post by va3uma »

BEWARE.

Someone from Flrorida is trying to sell an ICOM 703+ using N2EMA call-sign.

I offered to buy and said payment only by Paypal, but he insisted bank-transfer. I asked for his contact number, and got a Florida number. I called him and he said because of health conditions he cannot accept Paypal (?!!). I asked him whether his health condition would allow him to ship it, and also asked where the rig was. The answer: "I'll tell my wife to ship it".

Sorry, I do not have the real OM N2EMA's contact details. If anybody has his contact details please make him aware of this seller.

I have used due diligence before posting this - with the hope that nobody falls for these scammers.
The phone number given to me: 727 280 5482. And, e-mail ID used: n2ema73@aol.com
The person has a heavy African accent.

73 and God bless.
Prem.
