^ that's pretty much what happened. I came on here as he needs stopping big time. He replies to wanted ads here in the UK with the same sort of one-liners 'I have the part'. Then tries to get quick payment into a mule account at Redstone Federal Bank head branch. He also poses as John Homles and Jims Autoparts all with the same bank details. Redstone have confirmed the true account holder had their bank details hijacked.
I sussed it and asked technical questions about the engine he had, like 'is the turbo included' and 'it is a reverse injection input calibration system' etc and the replies were all 'yes' - which isn't quite right for a 1942 engine
