Item Interest
Last month this guy emails me about a Item I was looking to buy. Its a awron guage, he sent me a photo that I did a google search on and found the same pic when someone was doing a install post about 5 years ago. I played along and asked him to write his username on paper and take another photo. He could not and came clean that he is in need of money. Well he sends me another PM (Not knowing he tried me 30 days ago and failed) but this time he has changed his email. His user name is "HRA567" fellow BMW lovers please watch out for thi guy!

Thanks! The posts from HRA567 are all single sentence / generic responses to build some history.

Needs money so this is what he comes up with. Then wonders why we have a nice toy and he doesn't. What a clown.

Thanks for citing him.

Yup. He emailed me about selling a Harrop Supercharger. Just have to send him $8,500 and maybe the user with 5 posts will get it. I just looked him up and ignored after a quick search

He/she reached out to me trying to sell a Challenge harness bar after I posted a WTB ad. Google photo search yielded the same photo from years ago. He refused to take PayPal goods and services (which is the only way you can do a charge back via credit card if you never receive what you purchased) and originally requested Zelle (if memory serves me right). Definitely fishy.

I have extensive emails with this scammer. Unfortunately, he gave me pics I couldn't find anywhere on the internet, and even had an extra one I requested. He got some shipping money from me, but I've had good luck with my family at Wells Fargo in the past. (not recommended)

Anyways, I have what could be his full name, a number that I called that when including the one (1) gets you to someone who seems to know what you may be talking about, but also is putting on a fake voice making it hard to hear.

Even tried to continue the scam by giving me fake FedEx labels and tons more.

Someone should find him

Also gave me these contact infos

How did he get shipping money from you? That crazy. This guy is most likely on all the car forums trying to take advantage. You are correct someone in his area should pay him a visit.
