    So I had my want ad for a passenger door for a 1928 Dodge Victory Six 5 window coupe answered by someone here on the HAMB by the moniker DENTIST. He referred me to someone named Dana Neal in Tucson Arizona. He supposedly has a door, but sent me a picture of the whole nicely restored car, when asked again for a picture of the door he sent the same picture again. He insists to be paid through BitCoin and I find this whole thing to be quite fishy and smells like a scam. Anyone else deal with this DENTIST?

    Bit coin has no value...just like the imaginary door he is trying to sell you. So if he scams you for something of no value for something of no value is it a crime.

    The day you can go can pay your rent or bills with bit coin just aren't here yet.

    He probably has some ocean front property there in Arizona for sale as well as the door. Later Bill

  14. I WOULD SAY MOST ALL ANSWERS TO WANTED ADS ARE SCAMS, YES I AM YELLING!

    Now if the member answering is an Alliance member, then maybe not. But that still Maybe.

    ALWAYS PAY WITH PAYPAL AS A BUSINESS.

    It's unfortunate that today you can't trust anybody, everything is a scam until it's not.

    Bit Coin = Broken tooth. Dentist? Sounds like a scam.

    Obviously a scam BUT the Rolls Royce dealer in Houston accepts bitcoin for the purchase of your new Ghost.

    Deal with the Dentist, you're gonna get drilled. Or cleaned. Or flossed. Or....

    Send him a picture of the money. It has exactly the same value as the picture of the door.

    Of course he wants to be paid in Bitcoin. As of today 1 bitcoin is valued at $9250.00...that makes for one expensive-ass door;)
