This is when I got suspicious and decided to start checkin things out. i went to her profile and noticed that she was in fact on at that very moment. I refreshed her profile and saw that she was jumping around to "Evo 8 Wheels For Sale" threads... then going back to search results... then another For Sale thread. I clicked on every one she was in and loaded the attached pics of the wheels to new tabs in my browser....

LazarchickGalant (7:36:11 PM): why did u ask home many i had
LazarchickGalant (7:36:14 PM): did u need more then one set/
LazarchickGalant (7:36:15 PM): ?

LazarchickGalant (7:37:24 PM): ok i have one set already boxed individually one guy was gonna take them and then backed out
LazarchickGalant (7:37:36 PM): so if i cant find the pics ill just to take them really quick
cReMeAn 1979 (7:37:52 PM): sweet
LazarchickGalant (7:38:12 PM): i should really delete some of these pics i have so many lol
LazarchickGalant (7:38:28 PM): and it would have helped if i labeled them like rims or something lol
LazarchickGalant (7:42:34 PM): **** it ill just go take some

“LazarchickGalant” signed off at 7:54:34 PM.

Thats when I blocked her. She sent me in the e-mail the same wheels attached to that thread. Just figured I would blow the whistle. Wouldn't want anyone else to fall for this kind of trap.

Damn. That's twice I've almost been scammed for parts over the internet.

 

If you notice, that thread and this thread:
https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...23#post2487223
...are from 2005. That was another one I saw her visit.

 

..wow..this is why i pick up items only

 

Oh yeah, here's her account: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/members/55242-tlazgalant.html

 

That AIM messaged me as well.
Time to block it.

Thanks for the heads up.

 

No prob man. That's why I NEVER post my AIM on forums.

Funny thing is she initially AIM'ed me a log time ago, back before I was even thinking about buying another evo. I hadn't posted on here in 4 years and she's all askin me if I want to buy parts.

Right after that, i removed my AIM from my profile so i didn't get any more unwanted solicitations.

Then she just randomly pops back up today and goes at it again. Only this time, i did want to buy parts, smelled fish, got curious and ended up busting a hack.

Lets this be a lesson, kiddies. Cover your *** like a ****. If anything seems even REMOTELY suspicious, do a little investigating.

blah blah blah

 

I think I got a message from this person as well over night, though I was sleeping and never responded.

 

thanks for the heads up!

 

Yup I can tell you about 3 other people that person tried on evom. They tried me right after a friend of mine. It was very obvious that it was a scam

 

Got the same IM.....thought it was a scam right away.

 

ha ha... Wow i can't believe those threads from 2005 are still laying around there...

mods need to do some good cleaning in the private sales section.

 

WOOOOOOOOOOWW i knew it. i was pm'ed too. i had that person going for a while too. i new there scam from the 1st few posts. then i kept asking questions they could not anwsre. then i cout them in lies and bull crap that did not add up. hahahahahaha i soooooooo new it. wow

 

next time you don't trust them tell them to just make a new picture of the rims with a banana in the center hub, then they will trying a google banana rims for like 30 mins before giving up.
