Scammers are getting creative

[DuckDawg22]

Just a heads up, I left a "Pm sent" comment on a listing on here and couldn't come to terms with the seller. Got a text about 30 minutes later from an unknown number with a similar area code asking if I was ready to buy it. Seemed a little off so I sent the seller a message through the site, who confirmed he hadn't sent me anything. This guy went to one of my own listings and found my number there. I've dealt with a lot of scammers across a bunch of different sites and this was a new technique, so sharing as an FYI.

Never put your phone number on a forum, outside of a PM

Is that his number or yours? If yours it is now in another post. You should black that out or now change your number completely if you ever plan on buying online again. If it's his, which I assume it is, lets get him signed up for everything under the sun

That’s his number, although I’m sure it’s already been scrapped
