The ad says Atlanta Ga. but the phone number (469) 253-8266
he has listed is in Burleson, Tx.
No doubt it's a scam but i think i would contact the Tx. Attorney General and give them the phone numbers and ad numbers and see if they can do something.
Another thing i noticed in the ad is that it says V drive belts with pulleys, won't happen, the blower manufacturers don't sell sell 871's with a V drive setup, haven't for yrs.
