James Farris Leitchfield Ky.... verified seller ???

[autoxcuda]

I see this James Farris Leitchfield Ky with tons of mopar parts on Facebook for sale. Google only shows him selling on Facebook. Always has no replies to his ads.. some hints of a red flag

He's looking to join a group I admin.

Is this a reputable person? Has anyone here bought from him?

I think you have your answer right there. There are some Mopar parts for sale groups on FB that are about 99% scams.

Yes. But if he's got that much stuff constantly for sale, someone here must have bought or tried to buy from him directly.

Someone here from Kentucky know of him?

James has me blocked on marketplace for replying to his fake ads calling out his pictures stolen from here warning his potential buyers. If you’re in doubt, ask the seller to post new pictures of the item for sale with his name written on a piece of paper next to the item.

Ok. You’ve seen pictures he post on Facebook stolen from FABO ads.

I’m surprised my google search didn’t pop up anything.

Yes I use Google image search.

I just searched his name. I wasn’t interested in the parts he’s selling. Now this thread should pop up on regular google search to help others.

He requested to join a group on Facebook and I’m trying to determine/justify if I should decline the request.

Was looking for some first hand experience… exactly like you noted with stolen pictures and blocked replies.

Any others ???

We're hearing more & more about all the scammers on Facebook

I like to avoid scammers & so I avoid Facebook & the Facebook Marketplace,
I've never joined for them very reasons
some love it, some claim it's not a problem, great place to sell parts etc.
Obviously, I'm not one of them...

I hear more complaints about Facebook then Craigslist
that's pretty damn bad

If you want to let the dude join,
then make him prove & photo document his stuff
like use a paper/local to his address, from the day, & the actual date etc.
as "proof of life"
if he resists, tell him flat out NO...
& notify Facebook admin. of the fraud...


Good luck glad you're doing the due diligence too, to make sure he's ligament
not just another for profit scammer/Facebook statistic
& it's good to have conscientious people like you checking & making sure
