Folks,

Please do not post a reply on an obvious spam post. It makes cleaning the mess up take a lot longer and is a pain in the butt.

Received an email from a Dpallidin a supposed member. The email was obviously phony as it was in what appeared to be Russian. It used the classic rod email address. It looked as if it did in fact come from our site. May want to check to see if others have also been duped.

The first two reply’s for a WTB Peerless 1A were obviously scams - no posts, super cheap and both had a friend who was selling one - be careful. I’ve always had great experiences on this forum and have some wonderful rods and reels but you have to check!

Please report the scammer so that we can ban them immediately. Just click on the exclamation mark in the body of the PM so the mods can ban them.
