08-27-2025 – I posted on PM I WTB 6MM Creedmoor, 87 Grain Vmax Bullets

Payment for $170.00 was mailed to – Brandon Maxwell – Predator Masters screen name is Plumj

5502 Kuykendall Road

Jacksonville, AR. 72076



Agreed deal was $27.00 per box times 6 boxes = $162.00 I sent a Money Order in the amount of

$170.00 to help a little with the shipping, I purchased and mailed the MO on August 29th.

I checked with US Bank again today and the MO has not been cashed.



I will need to wait 90 days from the date of purchase to see if the MO is cashed, if not, the monies will be returned to me.

Fast forward to 09-09-2025, not knowing where the MO landed, I then paid this person $170.00 via Papal along with a $5.23 surcharge. FEARTHEMINDREC – Leslie Bass



Last communication from this person was Thursday, September 11th at 2:11pm, he said he received the PP payment and not a MO, said he is straight up with people and he will let me know if he also receives the MO and would send it back to me.

I sent him a message back 3 minutes later saying that I only wanted 6 boxes.

I sent another message on Sunday September 14th stating I needed a tracking number – no response

I sent another message yesterday 09-15-2024 at 11:22 stating he may want to respond to me.

I sent another message today at 4:10pm MST saying I am going to write a note to all of PM about being scammed.

It's sounds like a scam to me. Keep us updated. These scamming SOB's deserve to be outed and shamed. If nothing else so another member doesn't get scammed. @Plumj what's up man. What's the excuse. If I'm wrong I'll be the first to apologize but it's not looking good.
 
You should have some recourse with him through PayPal to get that part of your money back if he doesn't ship your bullets. USPS is so fouled up that it may take a month for the MO to get there if at all. Hope it isn't a scam!
 
Yes! 100% I scammed you. I will get banned but just come back under a different profile with the same MO. I just find pics of what someone wants and add the same generic tag;

I have been running this same game here and on other forums aswell. I also use Todd Reed 2011 Queens highway Kerhonkson NY 12446.

Google the name if you don’t believe me. Just know I will be back running the same game under a different user name. Suckers, lol

Running a scam on ABSOLUTELY KNOWN gun bearers is not a very smart move imo

You cannot buy bullets or other ammo mfg components through PayPal. Even if he paid good and services, PayPal can just say he violated terms of service. Would be like going to the police to report the drug dealer didnt give you what you paid for. You might get lucky and just say you bought “something” and it wasnt shipped, but if its written in the item info or something it wont work. Plus the “surcharge” is because he paid friends and family

You arent tracking him down, nothing he has provided has any direct connection to him… they arent stupid, just have no morals.

This dudes a pro scammer. We could get angry and call him every name in the book but I think it's best to say a prayer and let karma take care of him. He can't be a happy individual. Who spends time ripping off his fellow man on the internet and then brags about it?

Buying from 'private' persons on a forum is always risky in my opinion. Sorry for your aggr...
 
Also we should at least start by getting all his posted accounts banned. As @BBK said, it's gonna be almost impossible to track him/her down. We should take this as a lesson and avoid buying stuff from newer members until they have been around a while.

He has been banned so many times but just spoofs his IP address and comes back under a new profile. I’ve watched this POS repeat this. It was me who actually made those posts thru those accounts using the images he sent with his bs scams. Just thought it would be better if you members saw it coming from past profiles using the exact photoshopped hand he uses in his MO. He will be back with a new mo scamming this and other forums.

Ps. I know you are gonna read this, FU scammer. sincerely Jeremy
