I have been a member for quite a while, but mostly just read/lurk....
Recently I posted a want ad for a part. And got a couple of private messages directing my to a person via email.....
Anyhow, I ALMOST sent money for this part...but things got a little suspicious...and then I did some research into the email address used. A known scammer on many auto forums.
So, I then went back and looked at the instant message I received. The swedespeed user was a new account. Shame on me for not noticing this earlier.
My point, this user should be banned......won't stop them but.....
And other users should be made aware.
For some reason, I "felt" that since a swedespeed member "suggested" this person, I was ok. But the "member" was a new account, and just here to fish.
