Sad fact is scammers have found out about the trusting people on muzzleloading sites.

If a scammer shows up in my AO let me know, I have a few connections with the ability for some serious tracking. Nothing illegal, that is what they do.

especially a big group of crotchety old guy's with guns.
this particular scam is pervasive across the web. any WTB add even in Craigs list has turned up this scam.
May the worms reject them! soon.

The problem is that the state prosecutors won't worry about such crimes when they are under $1500, and thus not a felony, and especially when they are not actually residing in the victim's state. So the bad actors know this and simply do a large number of these over time, so if you're getting around $500 -$1400 per scam, if you're successful 8X a month then that's at least $48,000 per year and no taxes..., or any other deductions... which is almost a $100,000 a year job before the taxes and pension and Social Security is removed.

One thing I can say is as I've grown older and have less to lose, those who would wrong me have a lot more to worry about. I don't forgive, or forget.
