Post by w3ea »

I placed an add on QTH.com digitial/packet WTB " Microkeyer II "
I recived Two responces from hams claiming to be from "G" land.

One was claiming to be Any Clark G0AYZ eamil address g0ayz@hotmail.co.uk he sent a picture and wanted a Wester Union payment.

The other was a guy claiming to be G0VWP Terry Snyner email address ts.g0vwp@gmail.com and also wanted Western Union payment
I went to QRZ/com and checked the call signs out both had different Email address , So I responded to there QRZ email address and you know what.
Both of them responded reconfirming they in fact were not selling a Microkeyer II or responded to my AD in ant way.. and asked I forward this to the SITE

So be Warned the snakes are out there...

Yes the Snakes are out there all the time. It is a good thing that you recognized something was wrong and researched it accordingly. Some guys on here have not been so lucky.
