SCAM ALERT For AudiogoN Sellers - Too Many Questions
An interested 'buyer' starts asking questions about an expensive item were selling. Its the usual, "When were these made, any issues, etc." But then they start asking for additional pictures of specific areas. Usually not a problem. Its when they ask for a video demonstrating that it works, with images of all of the accys, the serial number plates, that it starts getting phishey. The first this time happened we found a listing for our product on another site with slightly different pictures. (The other ones we sent).
Its sad that these people use a sellers time and resources to help them build a fake ad for a product they don't have. Someone else gets ripped off, and then they contact us and we have the product they just paid for, but the money is gone.
We're always willing to answer any questions and provide any additional info for an item were selling, but it just bothers me to wonder where this information or the images are going to show up.
SOLUTION: Talk on the phone. Is still amazing how much of a feel you can get with a simple conversation.
