tara0133 appears to be scammer right?

Good choice to report the scammer to the Mods right away.

It may be that others fall for this but the url was a dead giveaway!

For the avoidance of doubt, that’s Tim (@cop414) who did the ban methinks.

Man, I've been a member here for over 10 years and have yet to receive a single email or PM from any scammers. I feel so left out...

I think they target members who post wanting to buy and for sale posts.

If they were using my FS ad , i did post a warning in the ad, a warning that needing to clink links would result in them being reported to the mods.

I have never posted in the buy/sell section but last week got basically the same phishing PM from someone else. I reported it straight away and it was deleted within minutes.
