6 figure fraud on the BST - Ruth Rookies

[Leon]

Here is a link to someone trying to commit 6 figure fraud on our board. Let's just be aware of these things and know they can happen if not careful. And if you don't know who you are dealing with, personally, ask me about them. There are ways to vet all members 100%. And if we can't then that is an answer too. Caveat Emptor.

It certainly seemed odd. Don’t see a lot of people just throwing out cards of that caliber for sale here. Number of posts certainly didn’t inspire confidence.

Really interesting post history, too. Seems to be looking for signs of identifying possible fraud on cards, cards that are going to go up in value a lot in the near future, and buying low level graded cards.

I am a firm subscriber to the mosaic method of reaching a conclusion.

Maybe it's just me, but do people regularly shell out 6 figure prices to people they don't know?

Thanks Leon for bringing this to everyone's attention and for all you do.

When I noticed them and gave them a look, my first thought - was surprised to even see them on the BST

Thanks Jimmy

Seeing them didn't throw me for a total loop. I have seen some cards over there that would be 6 figures. (I think Jeff L had a CJ Jackson that might have been). I personally sold a 50k+ card to another member a long time ago. Our members are our best safeguard. Please don't ever do a large deal on the BST without knowing or vetting your trade partner 100%. Please PM me and I will help in those instances if need be.
