Dear Mustang6G members -
We are having all users read this to make everyone aware of a common scam taking place on Mustang6G and other forums. This involves a new user (typically one who has joined recently without an extensive post history -- but this may not always be the case), sending unsolicited private messages to other users, telling you to email someone for a part that you're interested in purchasing.
The scammer will then show you fake (but credible) photos of the product and have you send money for it. Of course, the part is never delivered and the Paypal account is closed down to avoid chargebacks.
If you receive ANY unsolicited private messages asking you to contact someone regarding the purchase of parts, REPORT IT IMMEDIATELY (using the Report function at the bottom of the message). This will help us weed out these scammers so they don't harm anyone else on the forum.
Thank you for your help.
