For Sale scams
 
Anyone else noticing an increase in "For Sale" items on ToTV which are not valid???


I've noticed a number of golf carts for sale, which turn out to be fake.

I replied two weeks ago to a Sony digital camera post but never got a reply.

Just noticed it was posted by someone who joined TOTV two years ago but has no recorded posts - not even the camera one?

Great post. (for example) everyone loved Pelican Bay Transportation and they shut their doors and screwed their employees and their customers. I am so happy i did not pre-pay for my trip this week. Their employees didn't even know. Shame on them. Go back to Orlando where you came from. I thought their price for a private ride was awful cheap.

REPLY ON SCAMS
We had two direct experiences on this.
1. A very nice tree was being blown over due to faulty staking or tying up. We phoned it in, we sent in picture, nothing was done for 3 weeks, it finally blew over, lost the tree.
2. We had a real phony for a paint job, phoned it in, wrote a letter to define the problems, he claimed he was licensed and insured the villages, two lies, he is now still coming in, and working here? Yep.

I'm noticing the "0" posts. Some just joined, some are a couple years old. They do not reply to questions or PM's.


Not sure if ToTV is filtering these, or just letting us fight thru them.
