Scammer using my callsign!

Post by k8cpa »

Just a word a warning and heads up!

If you happen to be looking for something on this service and you get an e-mail from what appears to be this Station, K8CPA, sending it; please ignore it!
Someone, using the e-mail address of charlesk8cpa at gmail.com is contacting people and offering to sell products to them. Well, it IS NOT me, at all! Thanks to the 2-lander who called and asked about it. You saved me a TON of headaches!

To the person pulling this stunt, If I find out who you are, doing this sort of a thing, with MY CALLSIGN; I am going to personally make you regret the day you uttered my callsign! ...and that's not a threat, that's a promise! :x

Again, some idiot is trying to scam other hams, using my call! So, check with me, before you jump, make sure that it is me. My cell number is 1-313-817-4094, if I don't answer, leave a message!

For the record, I hardly ever sell anything at all.

Just a little more info. I contacted one of the persons who called me. This person is using the e-mail address of cookannette@yahoo.com for Paypal payments. It might be a stolen account. But, I wanted people to know about this.
