sammy01, looks like a scammer
Got two identical messages for different WTB ads I placed a month or two ago. Seems like an obvious scam and reported the messages via the tool but posting here too:
"Hi, I have the specific (reference I placed a WTB for) that you want to buy and I'm ready to part way with it if you meet up with trade terms. Please you can reach me on 209-417-1527. Thanks" Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

With the level of wit and nous displayed so far I think you should be looking out for a newly minted member called “scammy” next

I would love to see a feature that doesn’t allow non pledge members to send private messages. It seems like an easy block to deter some of these folks.
