Details
Hi All,
Thank Leon. Figured I would share some of the back and forth to possibly help prevent others from being scammed. Here is part of the Email exchange: 1) "Hi Dave, I heard back from Leon. Seems you are not the registered user for the "Moonlight Graham" user ID. Howard" 2) "PM me to confirm then" 3) "Did that before I reached out to Leon. Going to need you to work it out with Leon first if you are who you say you are. All threads that I looked at started by Moonlight Graham are signed "Joe K" 4) "Okay then" 5) "I have different email addresses so you have no worries Just make the payment and get the card." The guys email is "DaveHunk107@gmail.com" and has been interacting as "Dave" for anyone interested.

I'm lost. Did he pretend to be Joe K or was he just using a similar username? Or both?
Joe's username is Moonlight Graham. However, other similar usernames that are currently registered are MoonlightGraham and moonlightgraham062905. Which username did he use to contact you?

He emailed me directly
Quote:
While I often share my number and email publicly, I am also cautious to check people out before completing a transaction - I asked for his Net 54 user id to which he replied "Moonlight Graham" I 1) looked up the id (saw the others as well - but who doesn't know their own user ID?, 2) reached out to Leon - who said the name and email the guy gave me were not associated with "Moonlight Grahams" account, 3) I PM'd "Moonlight Graham" (heard back later this afternoon that he (Joe) hadn't emailed me and 3) checked a few "Moonlight Graham" started threads and saw the name discrepancy - "Moonlight Graham" posts signed "Joe K" vs. the guy emailing me as Dave Hunk. On a related/unrelated note - my phone number was "spoofed" twice today - just learned about this - a scammer can call someone trying to scam money from them having your phone number show up in the caller id!! Filed a report with the FTC.

He sends me another email a little while ago:
"Purchasing???" I respond: "Nope. Try scamming Someone else!" He responds: "Ok, thanks. " You can't make this stuff up!!

I’d be suspicious enough if the guy’s email was “Dave Hunk”. Who calls themselves a hunk?

Howard, did you contact him first about a card he allegedly had for sale? If so, what thread were you responding to and what was the username he used when he posted the card for sale? In other words, did he post something for sale on BST and if so, under what username?
Or, did he just reach out to you by email, randomly, asking if you wanted to buy a particular card he “had” (ie he did not post a card for sale on BST)?
