Hi, a simple check and one of the first rules to rule out a scammer is to look up the persons e-mail address on QRZ. If you had you would have seen it's not KE8ODY's correct e-mail address so I believe you sent money to a scammer. You need to be careful blaming someone until you are sure about who you are dealing with. You should go to QRZ and e-mail the real Chris Fountaine KE8ODY and see what he says. Just my 2 cents worth.

That was absolutely NOT me I don’t appreciate being called a scammer idk why you’d use a email address that wasn’t listed on qrz.. I’m sorry you lost money hopefully you got it back but that was not me… I’d appreciate you to quit labeling me a scammer thanks
