Hey there! Great question, and yeah, unfortunately, I've had my fair share of online scam encounters. A couple of years back, I was on the hunt for a killer deal on a vintage guitar. I stumbled upon this seemingly reputable website with an unbelievable discount. Excitement got the best of me, and I hastily made the purchase.
Long story short, the guitar never arrived, and my emails to their customer service bounced back. Classic scam move, right? Frustrating as it was, I learned a valuable less

Yep, several times. One time for thousands of dollars. That was years ago though. Now my radar pops up and I can usually recognize the scammer or the scam. Sometimes if I have time, I will string them on and waste their time now so they think they have a sucker on the hook. Lol. That eats up their time and bandwidth in some cases so they have less opportunity to scam others.
