This is happening more and more and it is alarming and disturbing.
Someone stole the identity of Ed SAUER, K5YDD and has been scamming hams all over the States and Canada.
He is clever and sends pix and info about gear and may have some electronic background.
He uses [email protected] and asks ppl to send money to his daughter, Ladonna Walford, in Texas City, TX. The real Ed is an elderly ham who has no gear for sale as his qrz.com info confirms.
Caveat emptor!!!
73, dx, Happy Holidays!

BEWARE SCAMMER--USING K5YDD`s IDENTITY!!!
