Hey everyone, just wanted to give a heads up to the community that there’s a scammer out there using Mod Dwarf as bait:

Edit: It appears that Reverb does an automatic redirect and wont show the original listing so here’s a screenshot so you can see the pics used, etc:
When I saw this price, condition and free shipping, I couldn’t resist. It indeed seemed too good to be true but since I know Reverb has excellent buyer protection and that I’d also be paying with Paypal credit, I was willing to take the small risk and I bought it. Shortly after I did, I got a message from the seller saying “hello i want ship today but i have problem in my paypal account please contact me at Griffinpaula43@proton.me” and they’d disabled the ability for me to send them any messages directly in Reverb. At that point, I knew it was a scam and I immediately contacted Reverb support. They quickly replied by telling me they’ve suspended the seller’s account, I should start a claim with Paypal and that they would also send info to Paypal related to this transaction. I did that and got the full refund within minutes. So all it cost me was a few minutes of my time. Would have been sweet to get a backup Dwarf for under $250, but whatever!
Anyhow, it’s pretty weird that they chose the Mod Dwarf of all things to use as scam bait and just wanted to make everyone here aware!
