You've already broken forum rules by publicly calling out and disparaging a member in the "general firearms discussion" forum. Don't expect sympathy from the mods.
Also, you aren't even supposed to be doing business on this website without 50 posts minimum.
So, no, you aren't respecting forum rules.
My apologies sir, my business is to ensure no others on this board are defrauded by a similar scam in the future. My first post was emotionally charged and I am I rethinking my words and leaving out identifying information. My ignorance resulted in my first post being removed. I plan on complying with this site's policy and I am rephrasing my original post for all to view and learn from.
