I have a guy send me a fake ffl paperwork last week and wanted me to Venmo him the miney. He even set up a fake Venmo account in the fake ffls name. I string him along for a few days and got bored fucking with him. I kept making him check his Venmo account after I told him I sent the money and to send me tracking.

These scammers are out of control on all these classified sites. Also gun sales are notoriously known for screwing people over.

Love the Fred Flintstone reference though. I would went with Bam Bam personally haha
