This Torseheinmichealhans1@gmail.com seems to be spreading his wings. I put up 2 individual ads on Guntree (Gun Africa )for ,22 rifles which Im assisting family members to sell. He replied to both saying hes from Germany , wants me to give Pay Pal details and he will arrange for a courier to collect.

 

After initially advising him of the legal red tape regarding police export permits aswell as import permits into Germany together with a myriad of other legal ramifications he thankfully disappeared.

 

I suspected a scammer from the outset.

Possible scammer called me regarding a wanted ad. Said he has the rare part lying in his workshop but a few people interested in the same part. First to pay gets it. Luckily I called his bluff and said I have a mate who can pop around to pay and collect. Not answering or returning call or whatsapp. Goes by the name of Paul using 0655375675.
