Hi all,
Yesterday "Martinioso" from Arizona here at oso send me a PM regarding ge wants to sell a Liberty 72L-HP drive, later I got an email with the exactly the same pictures/text as oso alias "EWB" used back in 2016, feels a bit fishy..

Does any of you know these guys or are they scammers?

I got this info:
"Martinioso" or Martin Harry
521 w 5th St.
Halstead, Kansas 67056-2106
phone: 316 925-6452

Best Regards
Richard

solely based on the name Martin Harry I can tell you it’s a scam.

Read the Sticky Post at the top of this section.

If somebody has 0 posts on OSO or very few posts and sends you a PM offering to sell you WTB or refers you to contact somebody else who has it.............its 99.9% chance its a scam.

From Kansas, scammer

Thanks for the info

Shipping from Europe is only 43-47 days to ship by ocean, so looking like scam for sure

If you sent money to a bank there should be a electronic trail as to who's account it went to, Get in touch with consumer division at MN state office they can usually investigate for you!

When I purchased boat / bits etc - I took a cheap flight, some $ bills and did the exchange face to face - or to a hotel on a credit card. Flew some back and brought a boat through Charleston on a K&N Roro ferry. (boat takes a month to get to UK)

Hard to trust long distance. (Reminds me of a Little Feat song...)
