This scammer also replied to my wanted ad and used the email address of josewk9k@gmail.com....the IP address is 64.147.108.53 and I emailed the real WK9K from QRZ email address (@arrl.net email) and Joe WK9K said he has no equipment for sale and do NOT sent this guy money to NY for anything.

wk9k replied to my WTB ad on qrz, i asked what the price was but based
on what i saw on qth and eham about his call , I used the qrz email address and
got no response, so guess the scammer is alive and well.
look out.
