WTB/FT: Beware! Scammer found here. If you have a WTB post up recently he has probably reached out to you

I'm not sure where to post this or if it's ok to put this in this forum, but there's a guy going by the name of Danny Barkley who saw my post for WTB aeroplane shuttles from "Nebraska". I tracked his IP address and found him to be in Lagos Nigeria.

Be careful. I imagine he's approached you if you had a WTB post recently.

Details here

Asking for email contact. US based. I didn't respond far enough to get to the "I only accept paypal F&F". Assuming this is a scam account too.
 
I've had a couple of these over the last few months, users joining a few days ago and going onto the WTB threads. How I found out about these was that I was searching the web, because the racket I was looking for didn't have a familiar logo. After some digging, I found that the pictures these scammers sent me were exactly the same as the ones that were posted on Malaysian and Singapore sites dating back to 4-5 years ago. Good to take the time to look at some photos online before pulling the trigger.
 
I had 2 times from scammers here already. One I did the reverse image search and got the same thing as Kipper_34.
The other was one of those, "I only accept paypal F&F". This guy didn't even ask for my address for the racket being sent. I asked for reference, guy gave me some other guys number could confirm anything correct.
Be careful when buying
