Treylane2560 Fraudulent Ads for Parts - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

redrum_maro · 06-17-2020, 03:34 AM

A while ago I posted a thread in which I was looking for a Pfadt Strut Tower brace.I had a PM that seemed really great as it was the part I was looking for at a good deal. Messaged the guy back and it all seemed very odd when he replied. I'll let the screenshots speak for themselves. Just a heads up when buying parts online. If the guy hadn't switched up the price on me and sent more than one photo I would have fallen for his scam.
Can someone also teach me how to report an account here as well? Pretty new to this.

Hit the red triangle at the bottom of the scammers post to report.

Fake parts, or fake ad?

Fake parts means, China, or other off brand.. Made of plastic?

If he's posting and does not have any intention to sell any parts, then that's just a
fake, fraudulent ad.
