Gian Sclippa, Pacerville CA
Anyone dealt with him? He called me about my Racing Junk ad for 4.155" Wiseco pistons and 6.000" Eagle rods. Offered to buy them without much discussion. My ad stated UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE money order only. He wanted to transfer money via Bank of America and I said no. He then asked if I would take a personal check. I repeated I wanted a money order. He said Post office is 30 minutes away and California is all under water. I said OK if you don't mind waiting until the check clears my and your bank. Today I got a check from him. He did not seem to be shady at all, but I don't know how long to wait after depositing his check to see if the check is good. I don't know if my bank will check with his bank or not. Do it or return the check or tear it up?
There is another scam topic just below this one that has Placerville CA in it.
