What is the email that is sending it?

 

[ChrisCapaldi]

The emails looks to be coming from different email addresses. I received one from:

"Mark Olivia" <[email protected]>

Greg's posting showed a different email address it was sent from.

All,

I had this happen to me last week as well.

Email was [email protected], phone number text was sent from was 409 210 5853.

He was acting as Ken Beller on the props he was selling.


Thank You,

So to be clear scammers are copying adds on IA and then somehow getting your email or phone# and trying to sell the stuff to you via email.
These are not communications taking place on IA. So we should not respond to emails claiming to be the IA seller.
Thanks for the warning.

 

[Ronnie King]

In my case they contacted me via Text Messaging.


Thank You,

I saw the email that Mike was talking about. But it was in my junk folder.

 

[Timbo Whalen]

Same people hitting r/c boat groups on Facebook.

I sent this warning a few days ago and it's the same,.
I did report it to PayPal, but looks like we need our own cyber IT person and try to turn the scam back on person or people.
If you don't know who you are dealing with and pay with PP pay the fee, your protected and they may not be able to move there money as quick.
