For reports of scammers using other people's callsigns. Remember that any callsigns listed in this forum are likely innocent bystanders (subjects of identity theft) and, thus, are probably not guilty of anything. For bad transactions with verified ham operators, use the Feedback Forum instead.

Scam alert - Harry M Saunders <[email protected]>

Post by K2ZTF »

Got an email from Harry M Saunders <[email protected]> about an item I an selling.
He bypassed QTH's email system and sent it direct.
No Callsign
his IP is 209.85.208.49 and is showing it is generated out of Finland, yeah, vpn.
Not the first time this has happened with me.

In Oct 2025 someone sent me a phony bank check for $1100 for a $100 item.
Forgot that he did it, and sent a second one.
Called PD here, called PD Va., contacted USPS and submitted all records.

Received an email from him outside of QTH.com for something I have for sale in ham radio area. Replied that I knew he was a scammer after doing a google on his email address, which led me here. So I emailed him that I was aware he is a scammer and has been outed. Then he sends me ANOTHER email:
"I apologize for my late response; this was due to some health issues. I will prepare a cashier's check or money order for the total amount, along with an additional payment for express shipping via UPS Next Day. Once the funds clear your bank in 1-2 days, I will ask you to package and ship the item. Please let me know if this arrangement works for you, and provide your full name and mailing address to ensure the delivery goes to the correct person. I look forward to your response."

The check is even printed incorrectly. No check printer would allow the MICR to overprint the body of the check and be crooked! Or allow the check number to run on to the top border.
