Their website comes up as palmetostatearmory.us. NOT palmetostatearmory.com.

Classic FB! It's FULL of scammers. Never buy something by clicking on the link. Go to the real site.

My daughter in law got us scammed on face book her friends account got hacked she thought it was her to buy a car at a very nice price. Sent down payment to Zelle and that was also fake. Had to close out her account they tried to take more. She finally got a hold of her friend and found out she hadn’t posted the car. So be aware of fb and who you Zelle money to.

I got my dumb butt taken from $2 and my card locked the Christmas Eve. Scan the QR code on directions for small security cameras I got. Though I was registering the camera to the web site. Turned out was scam thing some how connected to QR???. I back out as soon as I figured out wasn't right. Still lost the two bucks and got a texts couple minutes later from my card security co, say possible scam. So called had my card locked. That was Christmas Eve. So had to my credit union on Thursday get new card issued.
Like was said above about the sites gotta say .com on end. I went back logged into the company site for the camera. Got hooked up logged in that way with no registration fee.
I won't be doing the QR code thing again without really paying attention to what the web address is and what information they are asking for.
Bad part is so many things now have QR code as path to register or get directions.

I just know I would have no problem shooting those people do that, right between the eyes.

LOL FAKE CROOK keeps their FACT CHECK going for their socialist friends who are the scam artists!
I file a scam report and they never take the post down!
I will never buy anything off FAKE CROOK!
You even have to watch closely the market place, good deals there, but scams are everywhere.
If FAKE CROOK would watch for scams instead of censoring honest posts, they would be alright .
What do you expect from socialist commies!

Those scammers are so frustrating!! They recently started sending out requests for your credit card information because “there is a problem with a package being delivered”. So they “needed” my card information. I know a couple of my friends have been taken in by this scam.

eBay scam. Person opens a new account ( no feed back no other orders)orders something around 30 to 50 bucks after the buyer receives it, says not what they ordered, want to return it. You ok the return. The buyer will ship you back a small mailing envelope ( 5”x 5”) with ballon’s or a small thankyou card. What you shipped out weighed 3 pounds, definitely wouldn’t fit in the little plastic shipping envelope. So you file a dispute, with what you shipped, what you received and pictures.”” eBay will find in your favor and not refund the money to the buyer. Good for the seller.
The buyer doesn’t care as they will file a dispute with their credit card company. The card company reverses the charges. The seller still keeps the money for the item, but eBay eats the credit card company reverses.
This is credit card fraud and eBay is on it.
The instructions on how to run this scam has been on fake book and other discussion forums. Also on dark web.
