Scammer using my name and references. BEWARE

[chrisinohio]

I have just been informed that there is a scammer using my name and references. My account has not been hacked. He has a duplicate of my email but left the "i" out so as to mislead buyers. Someone was taken for several thousand dollars. Please, please if there is a phone number in an ad call them and verify. He even listed my phone number and today I received a text from the buyer who is understandably upset.

Check references, make multiple contacts, and verify before dealing.

I'm sorry I didn't learn of this sooner.
