Beware! - Scammer Answering Classified Ads

[Robin (UK)]

Hi Guys,

I posted a Wanted ad a few weeks ago and received an email asking if I was still looking for the part.

After replying to confirm that I was, I received another email with the price, a vague description and a request to pay by Western Union or Moneygram.

Alarm bells rang at this point, so I asked for pictures of the part, and the seller's user name on the Forum.

I've heard nothing since.

This is just a heads up to everyone, to be careful.

Don't get scammed!
