no escrow, no history, no verifiable address

a reply from a different address than the one you wrote to is worth stopping over, flag not a verdict

is a site with no history automatically suspect or just unknown, probably obvious to everyone else

for the watch notes an unsolicited private message offering to sell is never one of us and never has been, from memory

do not engage

a real facility address can usually be checked against a company registry, and it takes about five minutes, more of these around year end

thats the one, payment step is the tell

correction underneath

keeping the screenshots

thanks thats useful, too good, too fast

told the real company screenshot with the address bar visible, always. a screenshot of a page with no url is a picture of some text

the room holds no money and runs no escrow. anybody offering to is speaking for themselves

screenshot it

unsolicited contact offering stock is the single most common opening in every case posted here

template again we keep the pattern rather than a list, because the list goes stale in a fortnight, bank and card provider first

payment step tell pressure is the tell that generalises. everything else changes and pressure does not, that is an intent claim, be careful

a forged certificate usually gets one detail wrong: the lot format, the address, or a date that cannot be right
