Just had this nearly happen to a relatively new member I traded with this morning.

He put his phone number in his response to my FS ad, and someone contacted him via text, before I PM'd him, pretending to be me and trying to get him to send electronic payment.

I let him know via PM to keep all of the communication in private messages, and he was savvy enough to pick up the scam vibe from the texts he received.

Okuma Okuma , any chance we can add some messaging to new members to let them know how to proceed when they want to buy or trade, so they don't fall for this?

I've had that happen several times recently.

When someone post "call me 770-XXX-XXXX"
part of me wants to warn them about the scammers.

The other part of me knows most the time those guys are haggling lowballers that will likely fall for a to good to be true scam and learn a valuable lesson.
