I got this PM. It strongly fits the profile of what has been discussed before regarding posting a want ad and then a NEW member advises that they know of somebody else that has the item and gives their email address.

Most likely a scam. I have seen this same thing on gun forums.

Very very likely a scam. That is a classic template for one.

Unfortunately, these buggers are everywhere. mw~It's got to the stage where we now assume EVERY communication via ANY channel is phony/ a scam. We work backwards from there and engage with only those we know (or think we know) is genuine. Otherwise it is dumped and ignored. I now find for eg that I only treat about 3/10 emails as straightup clean. The good news, it's getting worse by the day. What with the politicians, media and big tech, it's got to the stage where I believe nothing of what I hear and only half of what I see, and I'm struggling with the last one too. H^^ And I am aware that everything you email or txt is retrievable. I can appreciate why folks like to go off grid. D>K

That's not even a valid Gmail account.
I was going to send him an email and play along but there is no such account.
