    Default BEWARE of getting solicited via PM by members with no posts


    If a member with no posts, or very few posts contacts you via PM, and gives you an email address, do not fall for it. It is likely a SCAM. Never, ever, send money to an unknown member.

    You pretty much can bet that 95% of those that have 1000 post will deliver what they say . I recently bought a ram mount that the seller failed to send the complete mount . I was almost positive it was an oversight and it was . The rest of the mount was immediately sent . Crappie.com is a gathering of people that enjoy the site enough to not disrespect their name for a few dollars . Once they pass a thousand post they are usually family .

    You can also click on their name and it will take you to their profile. If they wished to fill it out there will be some more information there.
