Funny when you list a specific card with a specific grade you are looking for and get an email stating the card is in nice condition. I immediately knew it was a scam!!

"Hello everyone! New member here!

- Have collected since 1975.
- US Navy Veteran, married with four kids and a lovable cat that we rescued from the streets!"

Yup, he's an "ave" id scammer, as he also sent me a nearly unintelligible message directing me to contact his 'friend' about specific cards I posted about here.
He just can't help himself from misspelling the word "have."

(Do I even have to mention that he starts a thread entitled "Welcome!!!!!" to introduce himself. Wouldn't WE be the ones saying welcome to him, not the bizarre other way around??????)

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Overpaying yesterday is simply underpaying tomorrow.

Mr. Fancy socks and knickers is up next. Tell any additional scammers that they will have to get to the back of the line, and bring a chair.

Third in line doesn't need a chair...I hear he's a stand up guy.
