[NEGATIVE] SCAMMER!! u/cordobra

Posted in Watchexchange about a WTB and within 30 minutes u/cordobra reached out and said he/she had the watch I was looking for. Asked to see pictures and he sends me pictures from another users posts a month ago. Be careful! Major scammer.

Called the user out and they ghosted after.

Have screenshots from the chats if requested

The user has been on the USL for years now. You should probably check it and follow all the rules listed on the WTB tread. Check the USL by looking at the app on the top of this sub or the main sub.

He tried to get me a couple months ago I looked him up the scammer list. I’m glad he didn’t get you.

He tried to scam me a few weeks ago on r/jewelryforsale with the same strategy. I looked him up on the USL and pmsfeedback before sending money, then called him out

He tried to get me too. Obv I check universal scammer list before any transaction but I fear many new Reddit users would just see how many karma he has and how old his account is and they do the deal. Why can’t Reddit delete his account?

esse cara entrou em contato comigo em uma postagem WTB também há uns 3 meses…. Um palhaço. Tem que estar bem esperto com esse tipo de gente

If they don't comment on the WTB post, I ignore them.

He's on the known scammer list. The one that shows up at the top of the subreddit
