This same 80% scam ocurred with Leica on the weekend. Popped up in FB as a "100 Year Anniversary Sale." You could get a Q3 for $1300... Neither Leica nor Hasselblad are likely candidates for blow-out sales...
I never get scam-offered anything that cool. It's usually crap gaming consoles with sixty emulators and nine-billion games built in or warehouse liquidations of Canon and Nikon DLSR gear where everything's $49.99.

I just get all that money from Nigerian investors. Well, I’m still waiting, but I’m sure it’s coming…

At least they're not threatening you. I just got a text from the "Colorado Department of Vehicles" saying I had unpaid fines and they're going to suspend my license and car registration if I don't pay up.
I saw posts in online networks with obviously photoshopped - but still pretty decent looking - Leica stores and posters at the glass windows with 80% off related to the 100th Anniversary. It was too obvious with 80%......but if they said something like 10-20% off, it certainly would have been a more successful click-bait.

Yeah, that sucks since you live in Colorado. I regularly get threats related to my old address in the US, even though I've left almost two years ago. Or that they share what they saw on my computer camera, even though my computers don't have a camera or it's taped over. Those fake McAfee/Norton bills? Haven't used them in two decades.
