I know MOST of you are smart enough to see through these but apparently some are gullible enough to get taken.

Don't deal with "referral" people and definitely don't deal with brand new members that haven't followed the rules like sending you PM's outside a buy or sell thread without first posting in the thread. Sometimes member accounts get hacked. If you are in any way uncomfortable let your Spidey senses be your guide or at least use an escrow service that protects your purchase. . Sellers responding the WTB posts MUST SHOW PROOF OF LIFE in the thread.

One quick and easy check is to google the phone number or email address given. Often, there will be other posts or reports on other forums calling out the scammer.

Members with less than 30 days and/or 10 posts MUST make a new member post and abide by other rules. Unfortunately, there's no way the site software can currently enforce this without member reporting or moderator reviews of all posts. https://hdrams.com/forum/index.php?threads/new-rule-if-you-are-a-new-member-less-than-30-days-and-or-less-than-10-posts-you-must-post-in-the-new-member-introductions-forum-before-selling.4914/

Here's a sad reminder that there are lowlife predators out there:


Lastly, HDRams is NOT RESPONSIBLE for any private deals, it's just a conduit to connect members.

Bumping this to the top.

LOTS of scammer reports coming in lately, keep your head on a swivel folks!
