mary006 Trying to scam me
I posted in the WTB section mary006 reached out to me to ask for my email. And she is sending me pictures of a watch listed on Ebay. I called the company who has the watch posted they have never heard of Kate or mary006.
Beware! |

Mary006 is on the forum right now....
If you look at his/her posts, they are all in the joke section within a few minutes of each other.... |

Here are the screenshots from the email communication I did block out my email address. She never responded to me after I called her on it. I have been looking for this watch everywhere at a reasonable price so I know every listing by heart on eBay LOL

I had the same experience over the weekend. Pictures of the watch were sent and look legit. She offered references too.

I've noticed that a lot of these new scammers post quite a few two word responses on the Joke section. I suppose this is just to elevate their post count
