Potential hacked account -- WestCoastS

I was contacted today by WestCoastS expressing interest in a watch I've posted on TRF. I tried responding, but it appears the user has disabled that feature. The user asks that I email him at [email protected].

In doing research, that email is apparently the same email used in the hacked account referenced here: https://www.rolexforums.com/showthre...ghlight=corn18.

I have not responded via email to the user, but the mods might want to intervene to lock the account somehow (if such a thing is possible).

Of course, if I am mistaken about all of this, I will gladly stand corrected.

Same here — he just reached out to me with the same contact info and no PM replies accepted.

The account has been banned to protect members.
The account will require full authentication for reinstatement.
Even then always exercise extreme caution as the account can easily be re-scammed as in many instances the scammer has access to the account user's email and can resume control of the TRF account.
So take care.
