Possible new scammer
 
Received this private message. Member is new, but sort of looks real. But the PM seems off and I don’t send emails about parts to random gmail accounts.

His username is Freddy b

Pm below:

Hello Buddy,
Not sure if you're already reached out to but I noticed you were looking for a 1970’s plexiglass grump lump and wanted to mention that my in-law Jason has been clearing out his garage and recently put one up for sale. If you're by chance interested you can reach him with exact details of your search at [email protected]

However, I'm currently on the lookout for a 14x7 YJ wheel with a 69 date, If you know someone who has one I will really appreciate a referral.

Thanks, Freddy.

Send him a PM back and ask for a link to where it is listed for sale....

Received a pm from another site member that he received the identically worded message for a part he’s looking for. Freddy B is 100% a scammer and should be banned.

When I looked at his IP he was located Coatesville, PA and no flags his email show toxic and the IP shows Denver, CO. I will place him in a timeout area to contact me.

I received the EXACT same worded message as LetsFNgo, only for a different part.
Unsolicited...

We sure appreciate our community here pulling together and watching out for each other.

We all had been scammed at one time or another, great we can shut these down before someone gets really financially damaged!

Thanks SYC and Steve for being diligent!
