    Scam Paintball website found

    Beware of https://www.pbsports.shop/

    It has a similar name to a real pb store, the address leads to a construction site, text is poorly translated and unrealistic prices.

      Their address 433 Tenmile Virginia Beach VA brings up a permanently closed bus stop lol. And also brings up a reddit post about another sketchy site using the address.

        There seems to have been a few of these type of sites popping up with stupid low prices. Remember one from a few months ago.

          When did paintballers get such a “ easy to ripoff” reputation? Has is always been this way? I remember shady dudes at the field trying to rip me off but whole websites now? Sheesh. I already buy for high and sell
          for low, the scammers can’t just leave it at ripping us off for CCM stuff? They gotta go after our credit card numbers now too?

            Probably earned the easy to scam rep when the masses moved to Facebook and started falling for scams from people that barely know English enough to find the bst groups

              my GF fell for one of these when she bought a yeti cooler for 80% off.
              it was painful trying to get the $ back from paypal.

              they said it was delivered. when was actually delivered was a dish sponge.
              they said i have to send the item back. the return address was a forest in China.
              they said i had to email the seller. the sellers email wasnt complete.
              paypal then had to reach out to the seller and wait for a response.
              finally when they never got a response, i was refunded the $.

                  Nice find. They are using Ansgear's address too. Website is pretty bad on mobile.
