someone is impersonating me

Hi, someone is impersonating me, please disregard the scam actions.

I am not offering to sell anything that has not been posted...

The scammer is using an email address that is similar to my email.

This is just wrong...

Regards.

I received a scam email from someone posing as you.
Scammer email is: ebxchanges.q@gmail.com
Scammer Calls himself:
Quang Le
614-401-8964

Body of email is similar to those seen before

“Hope all is well. I ran into some awesome deals on a few watches today was wondering if you would be interested in a black dial Daytona 116520 SS V series in MINT condition w/box and complete papers. My brother in law shipped me the watches for me to sell for him after running into some financial problems. He is only looking to get $9,000 which is a great deal for this watch. The watch is practically brand new. Also has a Omega Aqua Terra 150m/ Stainless steel case with a rose gold bezel on a brown alligator leather strap for $4,500, AP Royal Oak Volcano for $14k.

Let me know if your interested. I won't be making a single dollar on any of these. Figured I will email some friends and recent /old clients of mine that are in my email before listing them.”

Need more details. Did you pay money to this individual? If so how did the transaction take place - PayPal, wire, cheque, etc?
Or did you click on a link in his et, in which case you need to change your passwords.

Be careful, watch out user Monte, messages or comments are not from the actual account owner

Got an IM from this individual threatening to report me.

Sold a watch to Monte in 2016, went well, got positive feedback from him, now this user asking me “where is my payment or my watch? Do I have to report this? Why are you avoiding me?”

As you can see, there is no details on payment, what type of watch, we do need to see recent payment proof and the details.

So, if you got IM or texts from Monte, those are not from the actual account owner.

Hello, this is an updated post...

I got a chance to talk to the actual account owner for username Monte, via phone.

I hope he could get the authentication done soon, if Admin allows, to recover his account.

Regards.
