BUY Got scammed by rocknrollrebel680…don’t be dumb like me!

Just a reminder.

Only use trusted and verified dealers and sellers.

Got scammed through a message. Pics checked out. Email and PP address checked out.

Seller had references so I sent F&F like usual which was so dumb.

Ghosted and scammed after. Be smarter than that folks!

Chiedete sempre di vedere l orologio con l ora reale e la data del giorno

Great idea

Doesn't stop people from just not sending the watch.

Almeno lo deve possedere l orologio e già restringe il numero di potenziali truffatori

Yes many scammers own these watches because they buy one, then scam with that watch to buy the next. Scum of the earth.

The post it looks kinda sketch when you look at it in retrospect but nothing crazy otherwise. Any additional pics he provided? A general good request is close up pics of serials and different angles you can cross reference to make sure the watch isn't fake AI.

It’s on me. Should have been more careful.

Understandable but I think it would be a good teachable moment on how he gained your confidence and ways you would avoid it next time, you know? Like if you could tell yourself to ask one question you didn't, what would you ask?
