Scam Description
Tried buying a firearm and stupidly I paid through Zelle. Once I paid and looked further at the website and things didn’t seem right. The “seller” didn’t ask for my FFL. I tried calling the business number and got a foreign sounding ring of the phone. Once I got a call back the man’s accent sounded like he was from an African country. He requested my FFL and an additional $100 for shipping. Just stay away from this scam website
