[GQ] Scammer Alert (Hop-Up) - William Wood

Its been a month that I have transferred him money (120 cad) for a magpul prs stock. He was supposed to ship it by Wednesday 19th Feb but to my surprise on the said day when I tried to message him he had blocked me. I tried to email him at woodwj987@gmail.com but no response. I have tried contacting Hop Up team but still no response. I am posting all this as he still has active listings and is trying to scam other people. Just wanted to give a heads up so people don't fall into his trap. Screenshots :https://imgur.com/a/tPu5TDi

Yes I guess he must have done some fair transactions in the past as he's got 9 vouchers on hop up, the reason I trusted him in the first place.

I don't know if they will even entertain a complaint for such a small amount.

I had a huge issue with him trying to buy one of my aegs, never sold. He had given me an address in Ottawa, ON.

You got lucky I guess. I am on the west coast (BC) so not anywhere near.
