... and another one: “Have you checked with Tash via toh262626@ outlook.com has an ********** he wants to part with”. 

They come in as comments on WTB threads, and they come as private messages. If you receive a similar message then please let me know.

I had one of these. 

I did email the adderss..... Is that a bad thing? Haven't had a reply or sent any other info....

I was also targeted by said individual, but quickly worked out it was not right. Apols for slow reporting, been a crazy week. Thanks to all for keeping an eye out

I'm guessing that this scammer may be named Tom? Just a psychic feeling I have.

MajorDude

Anyone heard of franklin717 ?

Potentially another scammer, will update asap...

Someone with nickname Ralphgentoo PM'ed me about a Marshall CODE 25 and suggested we deal by email. I ignored it, but having seen this I though it was a good idea to report it. Same modus operandi others have employed.

Probable scam from Stevecrispe

Cannot be certain at this stage. Will post here again as facts emerge..

maharg101

No reply from Stevecrispe since I responded to them asking if I have an email address with this reply:

I do. But please post the pictures somewhere public like Flickr. As you've no history here, and there are continual scammers. Ta. Or put up a post in the classified section here.

Joined yesterday afternoon. No posts. 99% sure. Anyone else seen them ?
