BEWARE OF “ZL12016”

Looks like the account was suspended already but just scammed me and I’m sure he has others... never sent an intake I bought from him and sent me a text back saying “got you for a second time” and “you fell for it again.”

Call you service provider, call the police ESPECIALLY if you have his phone number. He admitted to scamming you. He should be arrested...


Looks like his # is out of stephens city, VA. I would be making a police report over the phone 1st thing in the morning...

Never buy from someone with the screen name of a year that the car wasn’t made.

Another person reported him. Posting a thread is TOO SLOW and allows them to continue until we see it. Let us know immediately This was his 4th username here so beware of anyone with just a few posts selling something.

And ALWAYS use a safe payment method such as PayPal. NEVER Western Union.

At this point, is there a way to IP ban people from the site?

An IP ban is largely ineffective. Cellular IPs as well as most home IPs are dynamic. Additionally, one could simply use any number of accessible VPNs to circumvent an IP ban. It’s certainly better than nothing but it only delays the inevitable.

This person has used the same IP and I saw no one else who had used it on this site so this will be blocked but as you said it's only a slight deterrence.

It's so EASY to pay secure these days but unfortunately some always fall prey.

Probably a burn phone, but if not you can always report the number and have admins provide the IP to the police, if it is indeed static.

The guy is using a disposable phone number which is provisioned by Enflick/Neutral Telecom (SVR). Use the following link for validation https://freecarrierlookup.com/

The carrier is getting the number from TextNow. Maybe this helps ... Good luck

I use Textnow when my girlfriend blocks my number from time to time. It's untraceable fortunately/unfortunately.

It's unreal the amount of time and effort people will put into screwing someone these days. Karma will bite this guy on his nuts one day and I hope he gets his jaw smashed.
