Yep. That’s what I plan to do going forward.
I am not a scammer 
I am just trying to sell some foil gear so I can buy some more foil gear

Can confirm! @SKLTN and I spoke on the phone earlier. He’s got boards to sell and a years’ long track record of selling them on this forum. Most of the scammers have brand new accounts and/or private profiles.

This scam thing is getting out of control.
If only there were some moderators on this board who could easily identify these things. Or just make a rule that you have to include a photo with your username in the picture.
I would still recommend everyone make a video call with the person to see the gear in real life and have a conversation. But at least a picture with a hand written username is slightly harder to achieve. While AI can do this, it’s usually noticeable.

Agreed. This forum is to the point that it needs some additional moderators to block these scammers.
Soon enough the site will start to get spam posts.
I have been an admin on a few different sites and witnessed the downfall of others from spam bot activity.

Another scammer account: Brunst . They’re getting somewhat decent too. Brunst has posted a few things on this forum although a close read shows he probably has no clue about foiling. Brunst referred me to someone else via direct message for my WTB Eagle X 800 post. The new person sent me decent pictures - I couldn’t find the images on google reverse look-up.
However, the phone call with the seller was odd. Felt like it was a crappy VOIP connection from half-way around the world. Poor english. Clearly no idea about foiling - couldn’t respond to where he lived or what conditions he went out in. Asked for a video of the foil and he said he couldn’t send videos due to the poor network in Texas 
About a 0.0000001% chance he is not a scammer and just a completely incapable person, but not about to send any money.

There’s also the fact that his profile pic is a car…
