Possible Scam/ kings Jewlery email
Has anyone else receive an email from kings Jewlery@gmail? I've bought and sold quite a few watches, but keep track of all names. I just got an email with pics of a Daytona, and the person claims I bought from them before but I have not. This is some type of bs, but unsure how to track down their ip address to see who they actually are.
I'm about to go to bed, but this seems fishy. I have some free time tommorow, so I'll see where it goes and I'll update. Nate

Well I played along a bit, and the person who is emailing me gave me a phone number which isnt answered when I call it from a blocked line--- and the number (which is different) online for KJ does not get answered either. Not sure what kind of a scam they are running, but I may play along and see what they say. This smells reallly bad!!!!

If you're getting a cold contact offering an item for sale, I'd lean towards it being advanced fee fraud aka 419 or Nigerian scam. The non-answering phone numbers doesn't help them look legit either.

Its a scam for sure! I played along for a bit from a line at work, and no answer! I was hoping they would answer so I could ask some probing questions and call them what they were! I hate these D BAGS!!!
