HoTWire , I just got a sneaky scam PM from Scammer-avoid , cleverly referencing a discussion in a forum thread. They will probably be targeting others as well. You must have missed the post of louis09 about 36 DCD 24mm primary venturi for sale some days ago... I asked him about it and he said it's still available with him. Here's his Email editedbymelle@mail.com

I’ve disabled the account to ensure they don’t ensnare others.

This is where I liked it when your post numbers are shown under ye username, it at least gave one the heads up they may be spammers

In that case I would have written a comma behind HoTWire 's name (yes, the Oxford comma has its use).

I’ve stickied the thread and I’ll change the title so this can be the ‘PM Scam’ report thread, may as well.
If you are approached with an obvious PM based scammer, tag the user in question here along with any of the mods (I’m usually here frequently enough to deal with it) and we can shut them down. Thank you!
