Account Restored – Scammer Removed

[BryanMordt]

I want to extend my sincere thanks to Mike Howerton for quickly addressing the scammer who recently hijacked my account.

I’m happy to report that I now have full control of my account again, and all fraudulent posts have been removed.

For awareness, the individual responsible for the scam used the email: mattcran061@gmail.com.

If anyone was contacted by this email or interacted with the fraudulent listings under my name, please be cautious and double-check any transactions.

Thank you to everyone who reached out and helped bring this to my attention!

The scammer who impersonated you wanted me to pay Alfie Reynolds, not mattcran061.
Hmmmmm.......I am still not convinced this is the real Bryan.
Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice.....you know the rest.
I would love for a mod to weigh in on this. In fact, security in general needs to really tighten up, IMHO.....way too many scam attempts recently.

It really doesn't matter who or what. Very simply if someone has something to sell and they are asking that you send money to some other name...run don't walk. Too many times people get caught up in what they feel is a deal to good to pass up and do stupid stuff.
I've been there myself only to have my guardian angel step in and slap me around a time or two.
If you have any inkling of a doubt what so ever just request that an escrow of your choice be used.
If you just can't resist and don't want to go down that path...you're gambling. Go ahead and take the chance. But don't come back on AZB whining and crying how a scammer got you.
I know...there are a few slick ones out there. Play safe! Your money is a terrible thing to waste.
