    bimmersoul1 contacted me from a WTB ad. He has no posts but was able to PM me and tell me to email him. The picture he sent was ripped from an old FS ad, google image search FTW.

    Not even somewhat sneaky...keep them coming and I will ban them.

    I can't find Philip Parson. Is that his user name ?

    EDIT: Hold the phone. This guys just responded to my PayPal claim with a tracking number
    EDIT #2: Took a paypal claim but I received my part!




    This is not WTB related, but still something fishy.


    greasemonkey918 took my money and didn't send me the part. I filed a claim and just waiting for the reversal.

    What's more interesting is that Skippy here uses the same email and "918" in the screen name.

    Technoviolet1 and jackwille46 are the same person, and running same scam cause he sent me and Incae21 same pictures of cams from a classified dated years ago. He contacted me with the technoviolet1 user name through his jackwille46 classified.

    Technoviolet1 sent me a random pm because I was looking for an exhaust cam.. but the pics he sent do not come up on google.

    But judging by the pics, one cam does not look like an "S5X" cam. The lobes are so sharp I could probably kill someone with it.

    Don't know if it's been addressed yet. User oldbimmer11 tried to scam me for a front bumper. User has zero activity, join date of this month, and pmed me responding to my want ad. Then sent me pictures via email (which were taken off a for sale thread from 2006 - I found using a simple google search, he probably did too) and told me his paypal was "dormant" and I should send him money via moneygram.

    His email was shawd7894@gmail.com - david shaw
