This is interesting. These scammers are too good. I'll be effed when I'm older. Earlier tonight, I posted asking where to buy a part. This guy sent me the below private message, and I then sent the guy an email. He emailed back quickly that he has the part for $55. When I tried to PayPal him, PayPal didn't allow the transaction to go through and said it was likely a scam. I then checked his account age and saw it was created tonight. That's when I connected the dots. They almost got my dumb-azz. His emails then started getting pushy. Sad that scammers are so active and savvy.

Well, the Mate and Cheers should have set of alarm bells.
So many red flags that I ignored. The tone and writing style in the emails was completely different from the private message. Maybe the other guy I'm emailing with is not actually an African prince... 5099

If they request friends and family only payment via Paypal, run.

For people who dont know. When you pay via paypal family and friends there is no refunds and even paypal wont get you your moneys back. I do need a rear window seal also for my 1990.
