Email phishing attempts or paranoia?
« on: February 09, 2010, 06:08:57 PM »
Maybe I'm just paranoid but twice now I've seen 350F parts offers and have not received a response from either.

Today I noticed a post about a "shop closing in 1995 and I have a whole bunch of NOS parts."  Whole bunch of email addresses posted from guys that want the list.  And Ken736cc, apologies in advance if the offer is legit but I've been weirded out by those 350F ads I never got an answer to   ???

You are not crazy,

You are entitled to your own opinions, but not your own facts.

Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.
