Here’s the PM he sent me, just a phone number. I answered with a flurry of f-bombs and reported him as a scammer.

“I purchased some items from Willy283 some days ago and single 22” wheel for a spare is among the parts he showed me that he wanted to part out with. Maybe you should text him to know if it is still available.. His number is 4145335204”

He's only pretending. He wanted my email. I wonder what scam they can do with your email? I told him what I thought about him and blocked him. Funny thkng--he actually had the balls to talk to me. Could barely speak English. He wanted to give me $300 for something I wanted $150 for. Yeah, that's normal. Claimed he paid through my zelle acct. I checked many times--nothing.
must be trying to send fake spoofed emails i.e to gain account credentials

How does this scam work if we agreed to meet at a certain time and place? I expect they don’t show. I am not going to go. I am just stringing him on. I really need that center headlight for my 48 Tucker tho.
Probably rob you if you show up with cash.
Here's @Rocket Man's douchebag! Found me some nice 5 lug 24's!

Would be fun to arrive at one of these meets with a couple of buddies all with black Tahoes and dark sunglasses. Also, strapped of course and I ain't talking seat belts. :secret:
Yeah, people like that need to be taught a lesson--a very PAINFUL lesson. I'm still running those mail baits on those emails lol.
