QTH.COM Swap Chat

Recently finished with a scammer who for several weeks was using my call to initiate fraudulent responses to QTH postings. Here's a new one just received yesterday from a slightly difference perspective. The followup message (to my brief response indicating that the item was still for sale), below is posted in its entirety. Looking forward to learning the details of his/her approach. It would be almost entertaining in its naive approach except that some individuals are defrauded by others who trust the QTH site and the inherent honesty of its subscribers. FYI-- Ron W2CQM/3
PS: called him out as a scammer and received the second response. (see below)
