Could you share the email he used for the transaction?

This same guy replied to my ad last week that I posted looking for a set of 2” headers for a 70 Nova. He sent me that same email and a pic of these nice herders for $400 shipped to me. I asked him how far he was from Benton, AR. He said 291 miles. I replied with my phone number and told him to call me. He immediately called me from a Brandon, MS number and acted like he could hardly speak English and then suddenly acted like he couldn’t hear me and kept saying hello and then hung up and went back to emailing me and said he didn’t know what happened. I asked what city in LA he was in and he said Houma. I said that Houma was 500 miles away not 291. He said he was moving around a bit. I told him I had friends in Houma and to just take them by there and I will send them the money to pay you. He then sent me an email saying that if there were “trust issues” then he advised us not to do any transaction. I just said, look I don’t know you and if you really have these headers you will take them to a friend and he will pay you or you are trying to scam me. He never replied. The number he called me from was 662-276-1307

He really must be trolling this site. I posted about needing some connecting rods for my Ford Super Stocker. He said he has what i needed but he sent me the wrong info back to me, Then said he made a mistake but he did have the correct parts. I told him i would drive there and pick them up. He insisted on shipping them. Then he could not give me the make of the rods so i told him i didnt want his parts. Another thing he would do when he sent a text was to ask if i was there.

Same here.....
When I posted a WTB ad here recently, he replied with the odd font and colors I used in the original ad, ( WTB 70 Mustang Fastback ) Indicating it was a copy and paste job or a Bot mining these types of ads... I was skeptical and googled the name ,phone # and email , even searched NHRA - IHRA for a John Tyler in DIV 4.... nothing.... needless to say I didn't reply...
