Rip off alert. I will give more details when I can write more. It was definitely my own stupidity that led me to get ripped off, but I was vulnerable at the time. Most of us hobbyists have been that way at one time or another..where you want to believe and trust someone. Well I got burnt for $300. Like I said my stupidity, but beware. Thanks for reading.

Thanks for the info. It is time to blacklist RIP OFF artists!

Sorry you got burned and I am sure every hobbysts frequenting TER appreciates you candidness.

so how did they rip you ?

Pretty embarassing because I am not as stupid as this will make me sound, but then again maybe I am.
The short of it....made an appointment..was told she had two locations, but would be at her buckhead apartment...was told her girlfriend would meet me in parking lot..I would give her the money by putting it in the envelope...then the girl would walk me to the gate and let me in....there was nowhere to park so after I put the money in the glovebox the girl in the car said just go to the callbox...and obviously she left with my money and nobody was there. My thinking is the same sweet girl I talked to on the phone several times before the appointment is the same girl that came in the car and had me put money in the glovebox...didn't think these little girls could be so bold as to rip you off face to face....she just better hope she left town b/c I won't forget her car or face..not that I would harm her, but would definitely get my money back
