Scammer Alert! - Watch Out

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
None

Item Interest
Wow, I was almost scammed,

asked for Meisterschaft for 650i on this forum and some guy messaged me saying he knows a person who's selling it so i should contact via email.

mhall6476@gmail.com

this was email i was given and i emailed and he gave me pictures and told me to wire him the money, and then we do some negotiating and we agreed upon a price and shipping method.

I told him i only want to deal PayPal unless he can prove his credentials on 6post.com, he said only wire.

Then i started reverse searching the picture and found the same picture on our threads that he downloaded and just sent me (this guys is the real owner http://www.6post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1336935).

Then i searched him email and people on ferrarichat were talking about this guy. - http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/fer...-among-us.html (and other emails and phone numbers he uses)

anyways,
long story short,

almost got scammed, but good that i doubted this transaction...
just want you guys to be aware too


message i received was

Damn, good call. I never wire money to anyone. I was almost scammed years ago as well. Had to run to the bank to stop a wire transfer after I set it up. The word 'OHIO USA' above looks like it was just copied and pasted so it totally looks shady.
