Icon4 SCAM ALERT! Someone is pretending to be Alex Collector!!!

Last evening i received an email from an old friend Alex, his email msg was fishy as i know Alex never call me buddy....Alex he always speaks very professionally in his emails. But this one begins with "hay buddy...."

Secondly, a daytona for 8 grands hmmm. This dude is smart enuf not to priced it too low to arose suspicious! smart but not too smart!! Re-read the condition he stated 10/10 and like new??? This is definitely NOT the Alex i known of!How can a "like new" 10 upon 10 condition!??! And than the step brother....you fugged!

So i wrote to Alex to find out abt his daytona, and he is as usual reply quickly within 24 hours. He wrote me, he had received the same complaint before that someone was pretending to be him...

I m totally surprise how this scammer had tried so hard to bluff his way. Below is this scum bag's email! I can't imagine if some recipient whom not familiar with Alex and believe it was the real Alex...

Hey buddy, Hope all is well. Was wondering if you would be interested in a Rolex Daytona 116520 SS White Dial; V series with complete box and papers. Like new condition 10/10. Selling it for my step brother, he's looking to get around $8,000 for it. If interested let me know.


Thanks,

Alex M.
