I was recently contacted by a new member with an offer to sell a "want to buy" item. Soon determined to be a scammer trying to get me to send a bank or paypal transfer. He would not send a PayPal invoice (which would give recourse) and always seem to forget to send the requested pictures. Caveat Emptor
I'll bet he's succeeded elsewhere. I'd put warnings on other boards but this is the only one I'm on. Anyone wishing to share my warning elsewhere has my permission, preferably anon to me.
