Is this forum full of scammers now?
I've listed a wtb ad about a fairly specific Mercedes tool and I've had multiple emails from people saying they have it to message them on their whatsapp. They're all accounts made this month with zero posts. Has anyone else noticed this?

Yup. I’m hit-up every time by a scammer if I post a WTB.

Not really a surprise. They're all over Craigslist.
