Back on topic if that is ok? I have received a PM saying someone has a code reader after posting a code reader wanted ad. They shared an email address. This is a screen shot - is this a legit forum member or a scammer? Thanks…Image

If anyone PMs you with an offer it is a scam. If they were honest they would post on the thread.

The wording is so much the same each time as well funny enough, they must have the same English teachers in Pakistan, India, Nigeria and Russia

The user hjuu475w has made several other posts on the forum. If a scammer, needs to be removed.
