Who are Leopoldopticsnow.com
Table of Contents
Fake gun and ammunition scammers are posing as online retail storefronts and aiming to steal your cash and personal information with too-good-to-be-true ammo deals and offers. Scammers will ask for payment by insecure means such as Paypal (Friends and Family), Zelle, CashApp or even Bitcoin. They will refuse secure methods of payment such as cash in person or GunTab.com
GunScams.com aims to disrupt these scammers by exposing their fake websites online so that you can learn to avoid them.
Non Delivery Scams like Leopoldopticsnow.com follow a simple format which allows the criminal to steal money from their victims in multiple ways.
The criminals will first create a website or online page from which they will “sell” their goods. They will often offer weapons for sale on gun forums.
The scammer will then introduce you to the secondary “shipping” website which will have been created by the scammer. These websites can be very professional and will allow you to log in to see your item being shipped.
The scammer can then charge you for multiple other items such as made up import permits, police fees, etc.

The Sale: Scammers create professional looking websites or advertise on gun forums. They often offer weapons for low prices. No matter how scarce, they have multiple in stock.
The Shipping: Even though they have no intention of sending you anything, they will continue charging you more and more fees until you refuse to pay any more. Depending on what you are buying, they may then try to blackmail you. The shipping website they use will be another website they have created as part of the scam.
Payments: Paying for guns, accessories, and ammo online is difficult. All payment platforms like PayPal, Venmo, and Zelle prohibit these transactions. Criminals will refuse to use GunTab.com as an escrow service as it protects both buyers and sellers.
How can I help?
Scammers use bank accounts, Zelle accounts and other assorted payment types. Let us know the details and we will try and shut down their accounts.
Our goal is to gather as much information as possible about Leopoldopticsnow.com and the individuals behind it. By providing us with details about the criminals, we can create a comprehensive understanding of the scammer’s network and take steps to shut it down.
We welcome any information about the scammers, even if you haven’t lost any money. Disrupting their payment methods can have a greater impact on their operations than just shutting down a website, which can easily be recreated.
Protip: If the scammers provide you with bank account information, request that they use Bitcoin instead. If they offer a Zelle account, ask for a bank account to transfer the funds to. You can report multiple accounts to us for further investigation.
You should never give your banking information to these scammers.

Backed by over 100 years of excellence, Leupold & Stevens started out as Leupold & Voelpel and remains family-owned five generations later. Though Leupold & Stevens got its start as a survey equipment repairer, it quickly became a respected manufacturer of water level recorders. Today, the Stevens arm of the company continues to produce innovative water monitoring devices, while the Leupold branch heads up the design and creation of scopes and optical tools. During World War II Leupold optics took steps towards innovating optic technology by working with the U.S. Army on an improved rifle scope and with the U.S. Navy on the process of waterproofing and increasing the durability of their optical instruments aboard ships. After WWII these innovations were carried over into the world of sport shooting, observation and even golf. Today Leupold is Americas optics authority, with rifle scopes favored by the United States Army, the Navy SEALS and the Secret Service. With unparalleled waterproofing and rugged durability, Leupold optics offer precise and clear views on gun scopes, and binoculars for sport shooters and hunters.
