Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
I just checked them out. It's a scam. They claim to be in Deleware, but have a Baton Rouge, LA phone number. The lack of caps in the address etc.Hope this is ok to ask. A seller on FB, "Military Truck Spare Part for Sale". Seems to be legit and has a spare tire carrier I am interested in for a good price. Comms are a little difficult. Anyone used them or know anything? Not looking to lose $1000. Thanks
Thanks Ken!!! Was going to call. I am super skeptical to online fraud. And this guy raises some red flags for me. Just asked about payment(using it as a tool to vet him) and some BS about only cash app/apple pay because of issues with shipping etc. The address is a warehouse in Delaware. Not his name but seems legit. Encourages people to come and pick up in person. Wish I knew how to do picture search on Google. He sent me a couple for items I wanted. Thanks again for sleuthing.I just checked them out. It's a scam. They claim to be in Deleware, but have a Baton Rouge, LA phone number. The lack of caps in the address etc.
I called the number and and got no answer, the person called me back with a thick foreign accent.
I asked about a Hummer bumpers year and what model hummer, he wouldn't answer, only wanted to know of I was ready to place an order, then when I asked again, hung up on me.
Do not buy from this guy.

No worries bud. We have to take care of each other!Thanks Ken!!! Was going to call. I am super skeptical to online fraud. And this guy raises some red flags for me.

only cash app/apple pay
Interesting. Do you have or know the name of the owner at that address? Did this guy steal somebody's page? He is getting lot's of responses on his FB page for items for sale. Would like to out the scammer if possible to save others. Can you go there and see what is up? He shows lot's of interesting pictures on his page. But, page only goes back to january of this year.So I just looked up the address that Ken posted. The address is legit, but the number is not. It is for a military parts place here in dover. If I'm not mistaken the owner is a member on this site.
One of my favorite thing to do Ken! I sent him a msg back saying that this is a very small community and that I looked into him and we were going to out him. Crickets....as I expected.Definitely a scam. I'm going to see how long I can string him along...

Timely post-See my post from above. He has already modified his FB page.I'll text John Murray and let him know someone is using his address.
Its to try to gain credibility. Likely if you tried to actually meet up with them, they would ghost you.Why would a scammer invite a purchaser to show up at an address and pay cash?
Lots of people have phone numbers that don't relate to present location.
