Another scammer
 

Got two PM's almost immediately after I made 2 FT posts:

Both were same and this person has only 2 posts which I presume are the PM's to me

From jomikamirez:

Crikey!!!

Tell him to fuck off

Nothing like a really fake hispanic name coupled with a perhaps believeable Nigerian one. And to think that they overcame such adversity to make it all the way to Australia!

I got one inquiring about a card I had for sale. Thanks for the heads up!

Most of these Internet based text (non phone) scams are based out of Africa, they speak english decently as a second language but it's always choppy and never quite right. I'm perplexed as to how these random (Assumingly) African scammers find and choose net54, a vintage baseball card based website. Something that has about Zero % following outside of north america.

Early this morning I received the following message from this same scammer via an email from Leon:

You have received a new private message at Net54baseball.com Forums from jomikramirez, entitled "looking to upgrade my N284 Buchner Gold Coin Tobacco card of Sam Crane".

"Hey mate,my old man has this available for sale in good condition mitchelwambemma@gmail.com Reach him out for more information Thanks..."

Yep, his old man also has the Matty Police Gazette variation that I'm looking for, maybe you and I can get a deal if we buy both?

Crocodile Dundeeviant - any of these new wave of scammers who oddly claim to hail from the ‘Land Down Under.’

I got the exact same message regarding an N28 Jack Glasscock. This particular scammer hasn’t quite perfected their messaging..,

“Where women glow and men plunder”

Sorry. Couldn’t resist.

ok Ed, you have to buy us a soda at the National for that one!


To all - *Please continue to report the scammers via PM. Look under their ID to see if they have been banned yet. Many times they have been. Thanks again for all of the eyes on the forum. It's our members that keep this place as safe as it is (still be careful!!)

and a card...

I'm just wondering... Is the scammer the Aussie who messages people, or is the REAL scammer his old man who supposedly has all these cards?

Thanks N54 for already banning this person today:
Heres the message:

Another scammer
 

I received 2 similar messages from this same scammer today. Sigh!
