I was also contacted by this party about an item I have for sale. Used broken English. Wanted to send me a check. I told him the check needs to clear. Then he wanted the name of my bank. AVOID!!!

This guy replied to an ad I have today as well. Same story, wants to send a check and so on. Strangely, the ip address matches roughly the callsign location, but it's easy to spoof an ip, so that means nothing. His email was [email protected] . Bad english and grammar. Imagine that. No red flag there, right? Also, of course it doesn't match WA2OUZ qrz email. Beware.
