Wow, thank you for the welcome 😁 Was not sure how active this forum was... Ok I can go through in detail then....
I listed a camera for $1,500 on FB yesterday and I got a message from a Nedyalka Robeva(Dimanche) which is a strange profile. I can't determine if it is a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ account just yet, but my BS meter is almost at 90%. Link to their FB profile:

Anyway they want to pay using PayPal and they want to send the product to the address that is mentioned at the beginning of this thread. What really got me started was he wanted to pay and additional $200 for shipping. Which normally if you are buying something expensive you account for those times of things. I make up a invoice and send it to their email account,
Kiloway700@outlook.com for $1819. About 30 mins later I get this email below.

I mean I can see on the email where whom ever wrote it actually used the tab function to get to the spacing correct. Then I went online and found you guys to figure out if the address is a scam or not? Did the writer of this post get screwed over by losing their shipped item?
Funny part is I actually know this area of NYC and I know a business owner who is right around the corner from this address. I should have them go there and see what is what.. lol They are some towing guys who aren't the nicest people if you tick them off, but honestly both of us have better things to do, like rearranging my sock drawer.
I have a feeling this is all a bunch of BS. Please thoughts, ideas, or confirmation would be much appreciated 👍
