Icon4 wzqzs862 is a SCAMMER

wzqzs862 forum member is a scammer. MODS PLEASE CHECK HIS ACCOUNT.

--Brand new, no posts, just joined forum member from "Miami" just tried to scam me into buying an SEL bracelet and kick me to a link to an alternate email address. I didn't fall for it, but he is no doubt trolling the WANTED sections, finding pics on the net -as I recognized the pic he sent me from elsewhere- and then offering it to one of us! BEWARE of this SCAMMER!!!

I think he is a scammer. I have got PM from him as well.
Here is what I have found with the same email address on VRF (in 2018, 2 posts in total):

You're not kidding. Scammer activity really picked up immediately after this $45,500 scam last January here: https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=653451

Having been scammed over PayPal , I can say these people are going through ridiculous lengths spending long periods of time trying to score a couple of thousand dollars, when the time they are wasting can actually be spent working. 33 different accounts that correspond to the same person. Pathetic.

Yes that too, I’ve seen messages of how broken their English can be over emails and it’s just hilarious how they think they’re going to fool somebody like this.

You'd be surprised how many people lose all common sense when they think they're getting a deal.
