PSA: LYRA, DYNAVECTOR SCAMMER FROM CANADA
For the past three-four months a determined scammer based in Toronto has been attempting to defraud Audiogoners by offering for sale nonexistent Lyra and (as of 11/2/14) Dynavectors.
The MO is the same: the scammer joins and immediately lists a Lyra Helicon or (today) a Dynavector XX-2 Mk II with a "Make Offer" option. Audiogon, to their credit, act swiftly to delete his newest account. There is a telling giveaway to his identity which I won't reveal since it makes it easy for Audiogon to spot him.
So beware! If someone from Canada joins and immediately lists a cartridge, it's a scam.
I invite the recently-joined Canadian seller who is listing a Dynavector XX-2 Mk II (yet posted photos of a Mk I) to contact me if my accusation is unfounded.
