Seller: [MENTION=45074]danielschutte[/MENTION]
Buyer: [MENTION=40682]3l3cktro[/MENTION]

Description:

The seller PMed me yes yesterday after I had asked about the availability of a i5 4460 and 4690 in two different threads.
The seller offered to sell me a i5 4690K for R1400
I negotiated the price down to R1000 and I proceeded to send him the money and as soon as he received the money, he stopped replying.

The reason I have a suspicion this person may be a scammer is because a previous user (@SinisterSmiley) had been scanned by a [MENTION=44935]jeremybender[/MENTION] and this guys email address was similar to the username. He also had the same name mentioned.
Unfortunately I only picked that up after the fact.

I understand that this is my fault for my not my due diligence before paying this person but I just want to warn other people. He seems to target new member (like myself).

I have learnt now to be more vigilant.

Thanks in advance
