    Hi, everyone. I have not posted for a while, but I have been seeing ads for different coins. Certified and raw. This is on Facebook. Silver Eagle only 9.98. Scam right, or so I should think , but they accept most credit cards and PayPal. I have seen these types of ads for over a week now. The link is long but does work. Any insight would be appreciated.

    I have seen many of these and have enough doubts that I reported all of them.

    Why would credit card company's allow this to go on for so long. Must be at least 5 diff. ads. Thanks for the reply.

    Yeah, my first thought was to order a bunch and then let the credit card company take care of it when I didn't get the coins, but not sure if it would be worth the hassle. Don't know how long each advertisement went on, and if it were a scam to get information from you.

    In the past two weeks I have seen over a dozen new companies (?) pop up on Facebook all making these kinds of offerings. They don't even have a coin company type of name. Buyer beware. I will not even check these sites as they may contain a virus, malware or keyloggers.

    What you order is what you see in the picture. What you get is probably something like this.

    1906 Fake Silver Eagle O.jpg 1906 Fake Silver Eagle R.jpg

    Check out the date. It is "a rare 1906 prototype" made a century before its time. :p

    P.S. This thing has never had a time, except perhaps at your local flea market.
