    Good morning fellow VFRWorld members,
    Not sure where to post this...so here goes.
    Beware of a new user with the "ivancole486" username. He got me in touch with a "friend" named Robert Loris who said he had VFR parts. After a long email conversation and $50 being sent my Venmo, I ended up with no email replies & no parts.

    I know I'm "new" on the VFRWorld lists, but I've been a HawkGT & SuperHawk forum member for over 20years (check my username on those). We post these reports on those lists as a "public service".

    DON'T trust either of these guys, they're scammers...out to take your money.

    Sincerely,
    Andy

    Sorry to hear about that Andy. Clicking on his avaitar shows that he has been a member for a year with 0 posts.

    I was burned some years ago over a seat cowl but just the one time. Most people on this forum are very good people.

    Does Venmo have any type of buyer protection?
    My daughter just got scammed for $80 for a concert ticket through Facebook. She said the person asked to send it through family and friends to save the additional charges, lesson learned.

    I'fe you're dealing with humans today, you're mostly going to feel like you've been F-ed over.

    i've been dealing with some fool who was coming for all of my remaining R6 street parts. Been e-mailing for a week or more. Last night desiced he wants them delivered 4 hours away because he has no gas money.

    World of fools.

    He probably wants you to deliver them. Might as well give them away.
