shenzi3 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Hi all Just a friendly warning (I lost money ) that there are PPG's listed on London.craiglist which are all scams!!!!!! Basically, very knowledgeable person selling them, knows his technical stuff, but the goods never materialise, all communication ends etc after payment. Beware of anything coming out of the following address: 150 Brechin Road, Arbroath, Scotland DD11 4AP ......also as a further point, beware of anybody who then communicates with you via text using the following prefix +44 070............... Happy flying Shenzi3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete_b Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 If you don't know the person selling it, get some one near by to go have a look or say you will pick it up and then pay cash. Yes it might involve a long journey but you can see what you are getting before you part with your money. There are scammers everywhere.

norbertflyer Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 There have been paramotor scammers on Gumtree, also providing bogus Scottish addresses, refusing to allow physical viewing due to a variety of excuses, offering a great deal that sounds too good to be true, and they always are....

aquatix Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Report it to the police - if it is the same person who has been doing this for a while now they should have enough details to nick him ..... I had his address & bank details from a previous scam but thankfully spotted it early on so never sent him any money ! http://www.paramotorclub.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=4516&hilit=scam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
