Re: [Hornlist] beware of fraud on internet

Someone is trying to auction my sons Paxman Model 70 triple on ebay and
several other sites.  The guy used the pictures from ebay when I bought this
horn recently.  The serial number is 128111.  If you see this for sale on
any site, you may want to report it to the manager of the site.  My son
contacted the guy and he said he would sell him his horn for $3500.  Quite a
bargain!


It has just popped up again in the UK:

You can quite clearly see the serial #128111 in one of the photos

If the guy was stupid enough to steal a link to your picture, alter the
picture to say "THIS AUCTION IS A FRAUD!  I AM A THIEF!" or copy a picture
of something else that I'll leave to your imagination.

If you can supply a link to the auction, more people can report it.

Fraudulent adverts using what I assume was your details haave popped up on
Gumtree here in the UK several times in the last month or two - I know Tony
Halstead alerted the web site and got the adverts removed. Have you alerted
ebay.uk?
