I wanted to put out a fraud alert for Facebook users, there is a guy on pedal steel guitars wants and buys who is selling steel guitars he does not own, he gets pictures especially off of archives like Reverb.com or off steel guitar forum, he changes locations a lot, does not use his real name, that changes too, luckily I did not buy from him since he posted a picture of my guitar I sold to a guy in Texas two years ago, now he is trying to cancel culture me off Facebook for making this known. So keep an eye out for him, wish I had an accurate id on this guy. |

S:
What's the name he's going by? And what do you mean "cancel culture"?
I need more info so I can be on the lookout.

I think I had this same guy email me a week or so back. Trying to sale me a Tut Taylor dobro for 700.00. I asked him how he was able to know I was looking for one since that was a old post I put on the forum some time back. He said he seen it here.I asked him if,he was a forum member and I only bought off the forum from forum members didn't ever hear,back from him.but 700.00 was a red flag |

The number he used was 414-856-4643, speaks Algerian after I turned down his sale of a guitar, I told him I was only interested in a new Emmons 65 resound, he sent me a picture of his, he wanted $1,500 including case.
It was a stripped Emmons no cross rods underneath or mechanics, he would not tell me his name. |

Facebook does not screen its vendors be careful you can get ripped off purchasing from any of their venders. |
