Scammer alert

[superworrier]

Got a suspicious message. 5 minutes later, another near identical. Turns out he is a known quantity by googling. I reported but I thought I’d warn.

Question for those of you who make WTB posts... does your inbox get flooded with scams? That's the main reason why I don't want to make a WTB post. Just seems like too big of a hassle to deal with all of that.

I mean I've only made one WTB post (recently), but I got nothing in my DMs besides a seller with the knife I wanted (and now own) and someone with a link to a NIB version. I don't think anyone is getting flooded with scams, just stay sharp and ask questions if you have doubts.

No not really, plus if u been around kkf for a while now you know who the trusted sellers are. There is some threads with reviews on them.

I didn't and my WTB is really meant to broadcast a message to people I already know. Won't buy from a random person...

No. Way more annoying responses to my WTS posts.

And no, you usually get just a few msgs when you post a WTB
