I have had two situations about my WTB ad. Someone presumably on this list tells me he knows of a seller who has what I want. He refers me to a person not on the llist, and gives me their email address. I write the owner and eventually make an offer. At that point I ask how I should pay, and offer PayPal. They say they have no PayPal account. They ask to be paid by money order or by a Canadian payment system that seems to ne similar to PayPal.
At this point I get suspicious and have called the deal off.
In the sense that when it smells like a con, it probably is.
Be aware.
I may be wrong about the 2 sellers I was dealing with or not. But I would not take the risk.
Be careful out there.
