flgunguy Posted March 10 Report Share Posted March 10 I sent a check to this user (name on the check he requested was James Gaglio) for a tripod. He cashed it on Feb 19. Communication stopped on Feb 26. Seems unusual to scam for such a small amount of money, and he has been a member for some time. Does anyone have his phone number? I only communicated on Sturm with him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappy Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 I thought the same on a trade with an AUG for a Nighhawk and after so many days i thought very dark ideas about the trade when the item did not show. It came down to a sickness with someone he cares about. LIFE happened and I am used to being scammed so my mind went to a bad place. Maybe something happened to him and a family member. dig deep and see if you can get ahold of him. I hope, for your sake, it is jusy a BLIP in a good working relationship.

Maybe his account got hacked? Imho? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noel.alford Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 Joel doesn't live in Florida and hasn't ever used the name James Gaglio that I'm aware of, I think you were scammed. I wonder if his account is hacked? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DINK Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 I've known Joel for a lot of years and I can assure you that he has never used someone else's name to cash checks. As noted, he has lived and worked in CT for many years and just recently relocated to TN. He has dropped his FFL and no longer deals in firearms or accessories. He was notified of this complaint on Snugbus and can't respond as apparently he has been banned here. Sorry, but you got scammed by someone else. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
har1690 Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 I am for one who can stand up for the real Joel Cramer of the old CT and the new resident of TN. I sold him an HK sear and an HK SP89 back in the early 90's. I know he has always followed thru with his customers here in CT. I would agree Scammer whammer...

Lzxray Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 May I suggest that the mod kill this thread now that it has had a full airing so not to sully Joel's name? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
