Another crook in the woodpile!

Post by K1JAN »

Well, I have spent a lifetime telling people if it sounds too good to be true, it isn't. GOT to start listening to my own advise! I put an ad on here last fall looking for a good rotor. I wanted a Yeasu G800 or G1000. Well, I got a nice answer from Stelian Dumitru ([email protected]), (the ss must stand for scamming shyster!) saying he had an 800 series in Romania.
Are you now asking whether I was stupid enough to send money to someone I don't know in ROMANIA?? Unfortunately, the answer is yes! I WON'T tell how much, but it was a deal good enough to even make me greedy and forget I don't trust anyone but my mother!! (and I used to WATCH her closely!)
As you can quess, several emails back and forth UNTIL I sent him money via Western Union. Then, Stelian who???
Anyone got a painted gold brick or a fine bridge to sell?? PLEASE, don't tell me! Now, I don't even trust myself!!
