Ah yes, we were due for one of these threads oh, it's been a couple of months. No doubt this is a scam.

My favorite thread was the one where someone did actually send money in and actually got a tracking number and something was sent. Usually you just never hear from them again and you would have to report the fraud and eventually get your money back from the credit card company and be issued a new credit card but this person actually tracked a package.

It ended up being a plastic whistle LOL.

Let's hope that nobody is foolish enough to send money here.

Definitely another scam, they pop up quite regularly. And yes, those reviews are lifted word for word right from the Amazon reviews page for that scanner.

No address, or phone #, on the contact page. Only the greedy folks fall for these cons. Maybe they’ll send you a whistle.

Don't forget the "desperate folk" -Not everyone can afford a digital scanner. Most are not willing or patient enough to save money to get one.

Website was created June 9th of this year, contact email is a free to create type. Come back to this in 6 months I can almost guarantee the website will be gone. I came across another advertising a TRX-1 for $99. It was a 3 week old website, I tried checking back to it a month later, website was taken down. Seems to be the new fly-by-night scam. Fake websites to collect money from suckers then slip into oblivion.

Stick to reputable sellers. Not worth the risk of losing money at best, identity theft at worse.
