Default Beware of Peterbill

Peterbill made an account yesterday and sent me someone’s email saying email him he has a 1.6 miata cast manifold. The email was brownmatt086@gmail.com. The guy responded to the email but for sure seemed like a scam. Just posting it here to make you all aware.

I posted this on someone else's thread a while back, after a similar scam which worked in that case, so I'll post it here too: "Post history/join date are major red flags, and that seems the case here."

At least you didn't send money - did you?

no I didn’t send money thankfully. Something just seemed off from the first email so I did some searching.

Yup, that's a known scam.
