I suggest the new scam:
One guy joins the forum and participates under a variety of screen names.
You get that email that says "I've a friend with the part"... and the referrer has 4 posts and joined in September.
Then you get the threads like the one with the guy selling the top for $475 or whatever. "I'll send pics". He then logs on under another screen name saying "Yeah, I contacted him... foot on the ground... I'll keep you posted...".
Then... a week later we hear that the seller came through. $475 top. What a bargain. "Seller" has established credibility... people start sending money for parts... and get scammed.
I would suggest that a proper scammer would be on a variety of forums (i.e. Ford. Chevy, Honda, Mercedes, etc.).
The moderators should better vet new members going forward.
Just saying.
