He sent me all the same information, but gave me the name Femi John. He recently joined several of the boards. No posts ...

YES! Sellers beware! He did the same thing. "Sounds" like a foreigner too via emails. Asked to pay via PayPal first, then agreed to wire. Never asked me for references or much about the watch. Was just "ready to buy" based on pictures and full asking price!

Titi Cezch titicezch@gmail.com was the email and name he used!
