KLF Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 This guy answered my wanted ad for a Chrysler air cleaner Report reply harperllc6 0 Started conversation: September 19 Hey, shoot me an email if you are still interested in your advert. E-mail me on harperllc6@gmail.com Many thanks, Larry Harper Larry Harper Sep 21, 2019, 4:09 PM (4 days ago) Hi Ken, Thanks for getting back. Great! I have a complete original air-cleaner from my 1930 Chrysler Imperial series 80 project car in excellent shape and condition, ready to mount on. I am asking $500 and happy to arrange delivery via USPS or FedEx ground to your door step and would acknowledge a bitcoin payment. What's your complete shipping address? Many thanks again and regards, Larry Obviously a scam. Bitcoin payment??? really... I played along and asked Send me a picture of your air cleaner with a tape measure showing the intake diameter, the helmet diameter and the overall length. I need to see the tape on all 3 dimensions Of course I never heard back Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stvaughn Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 I received the same response from him. After biting on a previous similar post I did not respond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_S_in_Penna Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Well, maybe the poor worthless criminal is unable to get the needed pictures because he's "handicapped" or "working on an offshore oil platform" or the item "is already crated and at a Google distribution center!" It's great when we hobbyists are smarter than the criminals, and thwart their efforts. How disappointing it must be to them! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frantz Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 I agree with it being scammy, but why is bitcoin an obvious scam? Lots of folks use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenie Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 I never thought I would see the word “ bitcoin” used on this forum. What’s next, NOS Tesla parts at Hershey? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody in my circles uses bitcoin. I've never seen anybody selling on this site saying bitcoin payment is fine. It's a red flag to me. Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
