    Fellow Hoodlums and Hooligans: Be on the lookout for a scammer that I ran into recently trying to sell me a hood for my 50. He had just joined the H.A.M.B. and contacted me via email saying he had a hood for me and that if I wanted it send him money thru some kind of mail service, said that his PayPal account was not working. Well I emailed him back asking for pictures and some other information. That's when he disappeared. His H.A.M.B handle and email (same) is sctvnble71@outlook .com. Be careful of these guys.

    Outlook.com is Microsoft. IIRC they don't take kindly to folks committing fraud through their services.

    Thank God most people are honest. Scammers can think of things that the honest people can't even imagine doing and if they would put half of their efforts by working a real honest job they'd have more money.

    Probably the same guy trying to sell me a 34 Dodge hood. Came through HAMB message and to reply to his email: jvnble547@aol.com . His HAMB account and conversation are now GONE! Jim Venable was the name he used. Wish it was for real :(
    His paypal account was dormant and to send payment by Moneygram. Notice the same "vnble" in his email address.
