TweetI agree.. And always do source checks before you order.. This is a must and a common pratice in the game now.........
TweetWe just had a member post in the secure forum. He was worried because he ordered from this "source" a while ago, hasn't received anything, and now the website seems to be down.
It was the website of a very well known scammer
What to do? It's pretty hard to warn members who don't join the board until after they've ordered their gear.

Tweetif there werent people to fall for it, there wouldnt be scammers.. its too bad, but i guess some people have to learn it the hard way.
TweetABOUT 5 YEARS AGO ME AND MY BUDDIES SAVED UP FOR A HUGE ORDER AND SENT CASH TO THE NETHERLANDS. GUESS WHAT? NOTHING. AND THEN I STARTED LOOKIN ON THESE BOARDS AND SAW HIS EMAIL ON THE SCAMMERS LIST.
I WAS BIT ONCE TOO. BUT NOW ALWAYS DO MY SOURCE CHECKS.
YOU CAN NEVER TELL WHAT HAPPENS IN THE WORLD TODAY WITH PEOPLE. GREED IS A POWERFUL THING.

TweetDouble ouch O2!
We all learn the hard way sometimes. Maybe not about gear.. but about something. Like the time I got arrested...
