I just noticed what I think is a new scam, hopefully someone on this board can put a stop to it before anyone gets hurt but you only have a few hours.
Perhaps I am wrong about this but it is setting off a lot of red flags for me, what do you guys think?
The gist of it is there are a series of 3D printers on auction that are suspicious for the following reasons:
- Seller name is a random string of letters and numbers (one seller per item)
- Seller a meber for less than one week
- Seller has no other items for sale and no history in general.
- Item add is a direct copy from other more reputable sellers
- Auction starting price hundreds of dollars less than the cost of parts and only 3 days long
Items I've found so far that match this pattern:
