MILLS TARGET PRACTICE SCAM CRAIGSLIST

[brazoot]

Beware of an ad on Craigslist selling a Mills "Target Practice" Penny Drop. The ad is Posted out of Cullman Alabama. The guy sounds as sincere and honest as anyone could imagine, But you will never see the machine. He got me for $400.00. I called The Cullman Police Department and lo and Behold he's getting money sent to him from all over the U.S. Don't fall for it. I would have to fly down there to file a complaint and MAYBE the Cops would issue a warrent for his arrest, then you would have to fly down for the hearings, it's not worth it, and the Scammer knows it.

Did you mail payment to him, or use a postal money order? If so, check with your post office to try to file mail fraud charges against him.

Craigslist in a know for thieves. Why would you send money to someone on that list. There is no fraud protection. At least on eBay using Pay Pal you are protected by Pay Pal.
