Almost got scammed. Buying via online is really risky.

[QUOTE="38super4me, post: 3734111, member: 50268"] I posted in the items wanted I was looking for a 617-10 Smith. Got a email that this guy had one And he saw my request on this site. I will always respond and pay for a gun promptly. Gun was from western Oklahoma. had a real good email exchange with pictures of the gun. Price was in line with the 617’s condition. Told him I would buy. Had my dealer send FFL copy to shop in Guymon. Then things got me looking closer. I called the shop the seller said he was using. They never heard of the guy. Then was contacted by the seller and he wanted payment by Zella. Never heard of them. I offered to overnight FedEx money order to the dealer. Never could get the guy to call me. He ghosted after that. I figured I just missed having a problem. I’ll still be buying in the future from online listings but if they won’t accept a money order at the dealer or talk on the phone I’ll be done real quick. just thought I would share as the seller monitors this site.
