Just a heads up on an experience I had with a scammer! I do put out wanted adds for pinballs and the likes, sometimes I get lucky (not often)

Anyway, this chap phoned me up claiming to have bought a warehouse which contained some fruit machines, he was very chatty and sounded plausible, I asked him to whatsapp me some pictures he said his mate would do that while we spoke, sure enough pics started arriving of fruit machines clearly from diffrent places and mostly junk stuff, he said there was 5 in total and wanted £60 each! When I said they were not what I was after he mentioned a couple of pinballs? I asked for some pics and was sent this.

He wanted £100 each for them! I already sussed he was at it! He offered to pallet them up and send them to me! Wow what a great guy! So i said ok write your name with todays date and sit it on the pinballs and send another picture, at that he said no worries I will do a full video and get back to you in half an hour! Never heard back from him lol

Just goes to show the cheek of some scammers to phone you up and try and rob you! be carefull guys, I think I have 2 mobile numbers from these scammers I could post up?

Cheers Ronnie
