I really wish you guys would start reporting these correctly. Start a thread AFTER you read the rules on what to do if you suspect a scammer. Failure to do this could cost other members thousands of dollars.
I’ve banned him.

Sorry Tim - I’ll review the rules.

As you’ve likely come to realize, the WTB threads are a magnet for scammers. Plus, unless it’s a rare watch that isn’t listed anywhere you lose any buying leverage. My recommendation would be to check a site like watchrecon daily and you’ll find the 1016 you’re looking for.

True - thanks for the advice.

Thanks for making this report Andy, this same scammer opened an account on WUS 19 days ago. He's history!

Hi I just had the same problem with this scammer posted a WTB for a Lange 1 Blue Dial and the same user send me a message that he had one with pictures of the watch. I used the reverse google image and the same pics he sent me were of a watch that was offered in this forum in 2018. I didnt replied, Im glad you banned him. Thanks
