Beware and be aware Facebook ad Palmetto State Armory "Clearance sale"
An ad for a "Clearance Sale" with a link for Palmetto State Armory just popped up on my Face Book page. Ridiculously low prices are a give away to most experienced ammo purchasers, but some could be fooled. I know some have been duped by these scammers. When I clicked on the 'contact us" link no information comes up which is a giveaway, too.

Exactly! FB will let any scammer post and even mark it as "Sponsered" because they get paid regardless if purchasers are cheated. I reported the ad, but got no response or reply from FB.KAHR PM40/Hoffner IWB and S&W Mod 60/ Galco IWB

Yeah, I'm seeing more and more "too good to be true" Facebook ads that, when you click on them, take over your computer with those full-screen "your computer has been infected!!!" scams.
