Another scam on A-mart today

Posted By Michael Stadtmauer

I'm not sure what can be done, but at least once a week, someone lists a QSI683 as a scam. The poster:
- is always unrated
- always posts around 4am, eastern
- never has the right pictures of the equipment listed in the ad
- often asks for money in 'USD' - this latest one specifies it must be a wire transfer - no paypal protection

Someone is going to get a lot of money stolen from them. Like I said, I don't know if there is anything to do, but its a problem. There is no way to flag a post as a scam.
