Rzani, other accounts are suspicious. S.U.S. sus.

Just trying to give a heads up - please let me know if this isn't the best way.

Rzani and a few other accounts are suspicious.

Rzani has been banned, independently of my interactions with the scammer. I emailed the Gmail address listed on the last couple FS posts from Rzani. It was actively responding to my inquiry, but in broken English. The Rzani posts from 2017 (last genuine posts to TRF) are in fluent English, and the prices on the FS posts are TGTBT (too good to be true).

Looks like Rzani's account was compromised around Feb, when some rep-building comments were posted. Then a few fake transactions with other compromised accounts, with the same pattern of very old accounts with low-effort comments on other threads since Feb 2022.

I can attest to this. I almost fell for the scam but backed out last minute because the deal was too good to be true. He was very responsive on Gmail and part of the reason why I backed out of the deal was also because of I noticed what you mentioned, namely the inconsistent English between his old posts and his current posts/emails, recent feedback from buyers who are new, and obviously the TGTBT prices.

Funny thing is he asked me for payment follow-up since he had other buyers lined up and I said sorry I can't figure out how to do an international wire. He then came back and lowered the price even further if I paid with BTC. Red flags all around.
