I bought a Uniden bcd996p2 scanner from the same person and never received it or no tracking information he’s a scammer
Thought the listing was a little fishy to begin with!
I did leave negative feedback
I reported it to this website but apparently he’s allowed to post on here
They don't seem to police the clasifieds much.
No they don’t or do they care

Saw this listing too. Seemed a little too good to be true, but I wasn't buying so left it be. I've reported him too.
I don’t know what good it is to report him as long as they get their money they don’t care
What money are you referencing?
He’s a feed provider, so the feed gets him a free premium subscription.
And I would suggest contacting law enforcement. They can contact legal@radioreference.com if they need to.

It is interstate commerce fraud that's what the FBI is for.
How do you suggest we police it? Perhaps you missed the forum description for the Classifieds:
All sales are between the buyer and seller, RR has no involvement. If you have a problem with a transaction, make every attempt to contact the other party. If unsuccessful, pursue relief with whoever handled the money: credit card company, bank, PayPal, Venmo, etc. All law enforcement requests for information should be sent to legal@radioreference.com
IOTW, use a payment method that gives you some protection and contact law enforcement. RadioReference will provide contact information to law enforcement if requested.

The ad for the SDS said Venmo was accepted for payment. Assuming it was a Goods and Services payment and not personal, Venmo is a part of PayPal and a money back guarantee may apply, simply dispute the transaction for item not received.
When people or ads are reported, perhaps someone should do a cursory investigation and remove the ads and or ban the advertiser if deemed warranted, regardless they pay for subscriptions or provide feeds. I know there is always a risk, but a ltlle help would be, well, helpful.
If we shouldn't report bad behavior, why is there a means to reoport?
How do you know the member isn't banned from the classifieds now? And we aren't CSI/NCIS/whatever, so I don't know what type of "investigation" is expected.
I don't, but the Administrator asked what they could do, so I answered him/her. I hope they are banned if they are scamming people, but the ad is still visible, although the listing is closed.
I would reckon that 99.9% of all clasified transactions are smooth and honest, so we should not let the occasional bad apple to spoil the barrel.
