I brought my kw v3 ($2500) and rear calipers upgrade ($1200) sent with PayPal and talked to sellers before I bought items and all went well but u still have these scum bags that'll try scam u.. also after I figured out it was a scam I went on google and typed in this scum bags Zelle name and another post from here popped up with guy trying to buy roof rails for his x3 from same guy and got scammed so just a simple thing like checking google might've helped me not get robbed.. stay safe

He just messaged me telling me to text 470-222-4744. I'm extremely cautious so I don't fall for scams as I've been in the online sales world for many moons

The biggest giveaway is to check their carrier with https://www.freecarrierlookup.com/ and if it's a weird text app it will tell you

Don't EVER send any money to anyone unless you are using a service that protects you aka never zelle, cashapp, or venmo. Always use Paypal Goods & Services

Also check their post history, google their number, etc. Ask for tagged pictures too with today's date on a piece of paper. DON'T TRUST ANYONE ONLINE
Yep same number that he text me on.
