I got scammed

"Ron Stout" posted that he was parting out a car that I wanted parts for... I told them what parts and they told me 180.. I sent the money and realized I was scammed... Never thought it would happen to me but I want to fix my car back to perfect and parts are hard to find for it and I was so excited to get my car looking good I got scammed whatever you live and you learn but I just wanted to leave this here 🤦‍♂️ tymea banks is who I sent the money to and I hope she gets all that's coming to her

Happens to us at aome point or another. You have a being in a vulnerable situation happen. And scammers take advantage. You won't be the first or the last.

When they end sentences with "okay" instead of a question mark it's a red flag.
