I asked if I could buy a “Bazooka” which if you didn’t already know, a Bazooka is a common name for a man-portable recoilless anti-tank rocket launcher weapon, widely deployed by the United States Army. And if you’re a new gun enthusiast and don’t understand the language of firearms you are likely to get scammed. These scammers have no idea what they’re talking about. Firearms are a certain specialty, and there is a specific language that one needs to speak in order to understand the world of guns.
When I engaged them to purchase a part, I became immediately suspicious when they were unable to answer a single question that I had asked. And once you do, that’s it it’s over Johnny, you lose that money. They will convince you that they have your product in stock, and they will work with you to set up a wire transfer or a peer to peer payment. And as soon as you contact them they will respond. Their “Contact us” page provides both a phone number and an email address. Based on their thick heavy accents and they’re utter brazen attitudes, it’s likely they are from West Africa or Nigeria etc. I’ve talked to them, engaged in email communications and text. All communications with the scammers are done via a Google voice phone number. And what is likely to occur is they will set up a wire transfer either via email or via chat.

And if you do, and feel free to try it, they will respond directly to you. The site also has a “Live chat” feature that allows visitors to immediately connect with a live operator. What also makes this site so effective, beyond the quality web development, is the fact that the URL has HTTPS meaning the “S” designates it is a “secure site” but that doesn’t mean it’s safe. They also have a Yelp and a Yellow Pages listing which furthers their “legitimate” presence. The site has been in operation since March 2020. Google index’s the site, which is scary, and people are being scammed every day. I stumbled upon the site via a Google search looking for a specific part for an old firearm that was provided to me.
One such site is Empire Gun Shop is set up specifically to scam users via a wire transfer. There are many scammers out there, and one of the things they like to do is to create fake sites that are meant to trick people into giving them personal information, commit identity theft or wire fraud or they’re designed to facilitate a P2P payment like Venmo or PayPal or they’re designed to siphon money via a wire transfer.
