The same scammer impostering as David and Tony is also hitting my customers and using a similar email as mine.

Scammer's email: [email protected]

My email is [email protected]

Please be very careful.

More info under Tony's and David's warning.

George, how's he getting your customer's email addy's?
Could this guy be hijacking your own email account and inserting his own addy as the "sent from" line?

Doesn't seem like he's hijacking sellers' email addresses, rather he's setting up new accounts with the same prefix, but on different email services (see George's OP).

But as far as how he's getting buyers' emails, I suspect he looks through the positive reviews on the boards, and takes buyers' names and emails from there.

Just my guess.

User emails can also be found on people's profiles on TZ, in addition to what G-Web has noted. This scammer appears to be using email addresses with "W" and sets up address with double V's and passes it as "W", or using a different webmail domain with the same email name.

Another salient reminder that scammers will try and exploit every avenue they can.

Always double check email and web addresses.

Thanks for the heads up.
