Suspicious response to a WTB ad

Apologies if this is out of line, but I feel it warrants being aired as I believe that the user that responded to my ad is setting up something.

I posted an ad looking for a Sub, I was contacted by user cl@udio73 from Italy, this is the message that was sent-

Hi from Italy
Can you give me your email.
I have something to show you.
It's nice for me to go to Spain for a face to face transaction.


The user has 63 posts, most just saying hi, or advertising a whole ream of watches. Maybe he is on the level, but I responded to his message immediately (plus he is in virtually same time zone), asking what he had. No response.

I just get the feel that this user has got his tackle out, is putting the wiggling worm on the hook and casting to see what he can get as most of the posts have a funny feel to them.

Once again, if I am wrong, apologies and delete this post.
