yoyogift8@gmail.com Phishing email

Got a guy named Keith Lopy inquiring about a watch I listed with phishing link made to look like the forum asking for sign in. Same old scam but thought I give everyone a heads up anyway.

Email came from yoyogift8@gmail.com

That is definitely not me.
Scammer is trying to impersonate my TRF handle.
I am currently not in a market for any watch and my e-mail address is different from my TRF user name.

Perhaps you all should all stop advertising your personal emails on your ads if safety is a concern.

If you're selling to the Forum community, communicate though PMs or DMs to weed out scammers and make them go though an extra hoop.

By bypassing a Forum sign-in, you're not helping the MODS or other buyers. Or anyone for that matter.

BEWARE - that is not me, scammer is just using my TRF user name.
Not in the market for buying or selling at this time.

Same here. Same email. Obviously I’m not replying to the message.

Wonder if it’s the same guy just taking on different alias.
