Hello
thought you might like to read the conversation i had with a scammer- they will really try hard . they think they have you so watch out when placing wanted adds..( i have had a wanted add on here for ages wanting some bumpers)
Read from the bottom up- of the email conversation below.
there were some pictures sent from him- first wrong bumpers- then he magically had the right ones.
i sent him a picture with a request for a measurement- that really stumpted him/her!!
Just be aware!!
I was contacted by user raymondwes= zero posts
he said..
"hello are you still interested in getting this?.
you can contact Ryan he has a ONE piece bumpers alfa 105 1600 gt for sale........... PM him @ ryanbull283@gmail.com"
email conversation..
Hello Damien,not heard back from you ? Do have a beautiful day ahead....

Another two.
Mronnie and kennedyronnie34
Both zero posts and both signed up today.
Each sent the same/similar message:
"hello, are you still looking for the above item? contact jeff.millard27@outlook.com to inquire if it's still available." And
"hello, are you still looking for the above item, you can get in contact with peter on peternillsmith@outlook.com if still available."
Same as pbhawkin, had both those accounts ask,
"hello, are you still looking for the above item, you can get in contact with peter on peternillsmith@outlook.com"
"hello, are you still looking for the above item? contact jeff.millard27@outlook.com to inquire if it's still available."
Might be a little more convincing if they don't send these messages a minute apart.
