MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Had an email response to an ad I had on here, not an autobot one but copied my wtd description (inc spelling errors) and can't provide pictures or details of the kit. Now I don't have an email address in my profile that can be skimmed from here and the email sounds like someone has actually typed it but thought id see if anyone else here has heard of this guy before fire an email to stw
Ive had the same email

Fontmoss don't think you email typed as it is will fool bots, they're well programmed to spot such subtleties.
mine couldnt be any more blatant, but it seems that carl doesnt like me.
yup, i had one too. im after a campag bb tool and he replied telling me the one i requested was still for sale. unfortunately i replied, telling him i couldnt remember him offering one before, but go on, how much do you want for it.
he gave his address as blackpool, and only wants 120 USD for it 🙂
Carl and Leonard (Lenny) are the two chaps who work with Homer at the nuclear power plant in the Simpsons.
Soob you've not posted in classifieds for some time it probably farms there.
I got one too, yesterday am, on the back of a wanted I postded up. weird
Requested Item still Available for Sale. Please contact me with you shipping info and phone # if still interested.Best Regards,

I'm trying to sell a frame at the moment, but really don't like the classifieds on here and it's lack of personal messaging/email address hiding. It seems you either lay your email address open to every spam bot on the internet or have to keep checking back on your thread for replies.
You could setup a rss feed for your thread or be more cunning with your email address.

So we've established that he has a job and where he works, arrange to pick up the item at his work place. sheeesh you guys are so suspicious of everyone. 🙄
Hmmm, just down the road from me. Do we need to round up a stw posse and go and have a word.

hmm ok has anyone let stw know? my email isn't complete in my profile which I thought protected it a bit more, guess not 🙁
I got one too.
And another from Dal King - this guy seems genuine though but obviously is not a member of STW.
Could it be useful having the classified forum available to logged-in members only?
Perhaps if you had to be logged in to see profiles.
Fontmoss you have a username the a AT followed by the domain that really would be easy to programme to work around for geeks. I doubt mine is fool proof but as it uses a less common domain it'll be harder to recognise.
mmm just changed visable email to somehting a bit more secure. Had it as is before but never had a problem so far. I think!
Clever.
Just have an email account for use on here - simples.
You like thst Drac, gotta keep ahead of them all
## slips away to put his tin foil hat on ##
I had a look on Google streetview for the address, but got completely distracted by the house next to number 29. WTF is going on there?!?!? 😯
fontmoss, I think you're going to need to be a bit better with your email hiding to safeguard it from clever bots. I'm no expert, but you could try:

For better or worse it would stop thickies from emailing you too...
i know thebunk but never had issues before, changing it now

Ah that old chestnut. 😆
I Also had this email from him when I posted a wanted add for an XT crank arm or chainset......I'm asking for a 150GBP for it including shipping to you. Yes they are
175mm long. Whats your complete shipping address and phone #?
Best Regards,
Carl.
Yeh, i'll send the money right now 🙄
To be honest I was expecting some crank emails 😆
