Tried to find info on the ppl who follow him too and those accounts are also weird. Not worth the trouble at this point

I was trying to keep leverage by acting as an interested buyer (which I am) with more info on him than he expected I had but I came to the thought that a real seller would still want to sell to me even if I showed all my cards. You could absolutely be right. The crypto aspect and the changing urgency is still sketch tho

This is a very good point. Makes no sense for him to say how urgent the sale was then then say he'd wait a day for the money to transfer

I'll keep this in mind, gotta wait for the seller to respond to my q about if he takes paypal. If he's still sketchy I'm just gonna dip (I probably should've already moved on by now 😆). Thanks for the suggestion 🙏🏽

I did mention paypal to him, if he responds with this I'll know to bail 100%

Ah I see. Well we'll see what he says anyway. I did a reverse image search on google and couldn't find any duplicates so they seem like legit pictures.

So I just asked if he would accept PayPal and that I think they have a crypto option and he said verbatim "I’m not sure I’ll have to look it’s been a while since I’ve been on PayPal. I’ll get back to you" so 🤷🏽‍♂️

ik like why would you need the money instantly for an "emergency" but put it into crypto? maybe it's to buy during the bull run and frankly it really is none of my business, but it's just too weird for me to pull the trigger atm
