Scam alert: Mavic 2 Pro

[AdamBolonsky]

A classifieds ads lurker seems to have hijacked a listing for a used Mavic 2 Pro. He has been obtrusively insistent with phone calls, emails and texts. He only wants Zelle payment.

He appears to have taken screenshots of the original Mavic 2 Pro listing's photos. He uses two different names: one for emails, another for Zelle payment requests. His phone calls and texts come from Alabama.

The drone sale listing he seems to have hijacked was originally posted by a well-known forum member from Arizona.

Tipoffs this is a scam are his peristent repeated phone calls and texts (up to three times a day), his inability to provide PayPal info, and that state he is calling from (Alabama) is not the state the legit classified poster lives in.

Odd, the Mavic 2 Pro seems to attract jerks. I’ve tried several times to sell my M2P on Kiji & Craig’s List without success and I’ve had to withdraw the ads each time. I get people in distant places asking for it to be shipped with payment later, payment by PayPal (where they can claim it was damaged or not received), very low ball offers etc. I’ve given up, it’s now collecting dust. I was successful in selling my M2 Enterprise but not without many questionable offers.

I had difficulty selling mine too. It still works on occasion so I'll keep it as a backup. I feel it is better than the Classic 3 I use instead, but the Classic has the smart controller.
