Scammer: e90must

All please be aware I got a PM from e90must in regards to my want ad for an ESS 550. He referred me to a Frank (fsk38205@gmail.com ) in Ohio who was selling a 550 kit at a price to good to be true. E90MUST also has a zero post count. A quick search shows that this is an active scam.

Hi,

Email Frank on fsk38205@gmail.com regarding your request . He gave me a great deal when i purchased from him. He is located in Elkton, OR 97436 and trust worthy and fast shipping.His cell # is 216-239-4282 but i think Email is the best way to reach him.

Thanks

Really strange, because I thought you couldn't PM members with a "zero" post count.

Same here. This guy has been caught before on a gun sale site for the same scam, and the email thread traces back to Nigeria.

WHAT??? Are you serious? I got an email from this guy saying he was a Nigerian Prince and that he was stuck, needing 10,000 US dollars to fix his M3.
I immediately wired him the money when he promised to make sure that anyone who is a forum member wouldn't have rod issues.

Might sound like a joke but this scammer went thru the trouble of emailing me pics of an ESS super charger kit neatly boxed up and in zip lock bags. So I had I not been paying attention to the tell tale signs and doing some homework one could have easily been scammed.
