A person named "Andy Hermann" has responded to many ads here. He is not a member of the Forum, and the nature of his replies makes us suspect that he is running some kind of scam. His email address is andy_hermann2004@yahoo.com.

We recommend that you refrain from doing business with this guy.

It appears that the same guy is using the name "Joseph Maria" too.

Thanx for the heads up. This individual emailed me last evening making an offer on an item of mine.

Scammers are still trolling the forums and replying to ads for goods for sale!

You can add these recent names and email addresses to the list of scammers to watch out for:

Jamson Valantino (jamsonval@yahoo.com)

fidson auto (fidson_auto@fastermail.com)

TOSIN OMISORE

Just another heads-up to my brothers of the steel bar.

I just received an email from "Don_Salesman_2004@dbzmail.com"
requesting to buy something from me
and, OF COURSE, he will be sending me extra money in a cashier's check that I am to refund back to him along with the sold item.
PLEASE BE AWARE of Don_salesman, he's out there lurking !!
Just a heads up !

Just a reminder, that anybody who receives an email mentioning paying for an item with an excess amount cashier's check, then refunding the excess via Western Union, may forward that email to me, for analysis, and reporting to their upstream providers. It is also useful in tracking down originating IP addresses, for countermeasures.

Please FORWARD the original scam message to wizardodelasteel @ hotmail.com (remove the spaces around the @ sign). Only send serious scam letters, which mention overpayment and refunding the difference.
