While I'm sympathetic to anyone getting scammed, this is why I included the last line in this thread:
I've made it very clear in the past, but new members may not be acutely aware, PHF is a forum for music. The impetus behind the site is not specifically for trading or selling. As a result, Mods and Admins do not get involved with issues relating to trading/selling/buying. You are more than welcome to share your experiences with other users (positive and negative), but that's your prerogative. Now, if the user in question begins to exhibit behaviour that explicitly goes against the rules that are outlined in the thread above, that's where you may report such behaviour, and a Mod or Admin will conduct an investigation. I hope this brings you some solace.
