USPS Money Orders aren't all they're raved to be either

Rick, where is this "REPORT" button that you are referring to? There was another guy in here about a week ago trying to purchase or sell a gun frame or something like that. He got caught by another member in the middle of the scheme. Apparently the other member had read a couple of this guy's posts and put 2&2 together and called him out on it. And…I'm old and can sometimes be technically challenged!! Where is that report button you're talking about please??

Good morning. Hope all had a nice Christmas.

That message is legit. Chris is my main admin.schemed

Thanks Len, I was waiting/hoping that either you or "Chris" were going to jump on here and clear this up. There are so many scammers and crooked schemes out there today it is tough navigate around them.

Thank you. I've been on this site for many years and never noticed it before.

Thanks for the screen shot.

Just thought I would add a few bits into the conversation

• I've added a "hue" to the banner under my name that links to the Staff page.
• Stripe or Paypal processes the credit card fees. For security, this is the only method of payment we accept.
• The forum is free to use, but we want to make folks aware they can support the site, and we appreciate the support.

Thank you all for the support, and being a part of LRH. Happy New Year to all!

Geez, @Chris gets outed faster than real scammers! There is something about that's inherently funny!

This seemed odd to me…
Some guy named Chris that identifies himself as an administrator soliciting a reduced membership rate w/ auto renewal. Anyone else getting this message? I don't know how to notify Mr Backus

I got the same message.

I went back to old school and writing checks. If they don't receive checks then I draw cash out and go pay for it. I had my account hacked and someone was enjoying themselves for a short time in New Amsterdam. This past year my wife had her account hacked 6 times.

I am so confused about what appears to be people not actually reading.

@Chris is an administrator and part of Long Range Hunting. There is no scam.

Anyone have an explanation for why people don't seem to read the important parts?

it's simple with all the scams and accounts being hacked you can't trust anything and for safety better ask than be scammed

Hmm.

That would be true for the original reason to post. Fore warned is fore armed. It's the follow on posts that confuse me. So..

I am more interested in after it was confirmed that is was Long Range Only communications and that when you accept the terms to be here you are told that you will get messages from the administrators. People keep complaining it's a scam.
