I have a ad running on here looking for a Patcomm 9000. I had no contacts until yesterday from a person claiming to be Terry Rose G4OXD. Well to make a long story short we exchanged e mails and i asked for pictures of the radio.Only a blind person would have missed the fact that the pictures were all in different setting's which made me suspicious. Then when i said his price was to high he quickly agreed to my preferred price. So any way i went to QRZ got G4OXD info and correct e mail address and made note he also used another call at times in which the scammer was unable to tell me. Here is the scammers E Mail he used but doubtful if he uses the same one for other scams.....candlambertrose<terryrose>....Here now is my E Mail from the real Terry Rose.......
HI Larry
Thanks for the copy of the Emails about the scammer.He seems very clued up on the Pat com.I have had three amatuers now Emailing me from the states now asking for authentication as they to were not to sure about this chap.I do not sell abroad at all only to Great Brtain & Ireland.If the Email address is from a .com it is a company Emailing address & can come from anyway in the world.What I was worried & this is were the scammer can get his money is through Paypal.They just ask for the persons Email address & then with your permission just send the money.By the time you have made a complaint to Paypal for non delivery he has taken the money closed the account& scarpered.Well I was glad you were very vigilant & did not lose your money.If you see my adverts again make sure the Email address is [email protected] no other.Thanks again for bringing it to my attention & God bless you aswell & hope to may be work you on the air sometime.We worked a lot of State side stations in CQWW last weekend under the call sign G3B.Thanks again
Regards Terry G4OXD The real one.
