Banned member sent message

Just received a private message about my watch. Looked up his ID and says "banned" under his username and the person he vouched for says banned under his name also.

Any time someone says they are interested in your "item", it a dead giveaway to a scam....

In this case looks like an established member got hacked maybe (due to the higher than 0-10 post count) before they got banned?

The message would have gone out prior to the account being banned.
