Hijacked AD6KD FT-897D - Appears to be Scammer

Post by AE3RT »

Hello All,

There is an ad currently running for a FT-897D with LDG tuner, etc under the call AD6KD...

I received the following e-mail from this individual today:

"Okay Roger,


Yeah, it includes the YF-122C.


Kindly proceed with a PO money order to.

Name: Paciana Benitez Ashton
Address: 931 Temple dr., apt 2
San Jose, CA
95117


Due to health issues...... cant really go far but I have a few hands to help.
Once MO delivers...... the rig will be shipped.


73
John."

This is not the proper address or name for AD6KD, but it is the same name and address used in a scam ran last week for a K3 under the hijacked callsign KI6MPJ. (See http://forums.qrz.com/showthread.php?38 ... all-KI6MPJ)

73,

This Benitez Aston Character was the same idiot that was posting phony ads last week under the call of K6HLE. After I accused him of being a fraud, he took off his ad and emailed me that he took it off because he can't stand Violent people. I told him that I can't stand crooks either.
