You need to be very careful on GA whether on the buying or the selling side. On the average I get about two scam offers to buy every month. Usually they want to send more than the purchase price & want me to ship the gun & the extra money to a middleman. Most of these originate from the UK by Nigerians. They will even send an official looking cashier's check.
On the selling side, as in the foregoing, they offer a gun at a ridiculously low price & want the money up front. Of course you never get the gun. GA has been good about terminating the scammer's account when I report this to them at: customerservice@gunsamerica.com. Michele ususlly responds & tells me that that account has been terminated.
You can usually detect these scam artists by their misspelling, calling the gun an "item", and displaying a general lack of knowledge about what they are buying or selling. BE CAREFUL!
Best Regards, George
