just received a similar PM with a link from a fresh member wanting to sell a BLNR (I did not click on the link of course). The fun part is that I have never posted that I wanted to buy this watch...

name is audrey1

I got a PM about a BLNR from a davidpeps.

This is the first scammer PM I've ever gotten and it was gone before I could even read it.

Good going, mods.
