Was just about to post the same warning. He responded to my WTB ad
Course, he could just be a recovering gear head with a lot to sale...... but I’d bet against him

Good catch. Every response is identical: Hello, How are you doing today ? I have one available for sale,email me for pictures and details. Glockking05 gmail.com Definitely phishing for email addresses to spam or worse.
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery. Hit the target, all else is twaddle!

He sent PMs to some as well without a response on the post.
Same wording as well.

Just send him a bunch of democrat senator email addresses I’m still new here too, but did pick up an action last week from a member. When new, better to purchase a few items than try to sell all your junk (which I have plenty to sell or trade). That gets some folks familiar with you and gives you some cred. Sending senator names … that’s ingenious, and HILLARYous!

I admire the sentiment but be aware that this scam is just looking for valid email addresses, what's in the email is of no value to the scammer. Any email sent plays right into their hands.

I gotta plead ignorance and ask, what are these people doing with the address? Do they hack your account or something? Didn't know this even went on.

I picked up and bagged about 7 piles of dog chit and mailed it to the address he gave me.
Lot of this going on. New user wants to sell me something for now on- they ship first.
