One of the oldest tricks in the book is for scammers to sign up to a forum, scan the for/sale section, and then PM members who have posted in threads offering the same items for sale. This has happened from time to time on SG101, so do not fall for it! Please contact me immediately if you receive unsolicited PM's from strangers offering items for sale.

Hey this has been happening frequently lately. Be very wary of anyone you've never heard of on the forums offering you items for sale or sending you to another email address to take the conversation off site.

If you received a private message from Harrismikolatgmaildotcom please ignore it, he was spamming lots of people in PMs.

Happened again! Don't trust PMs from new members offering you items for sale in years old threads.
