You have to really watch out when posting WTB ads.
Here is what he sent:
Hey Blue,
Are you still looking for the Nikon D800e? If so I have a great condition D800e with original boxing and accessories including a 8GB CompactFlash Card. Shutter is at 12,000k and the camera has no scratches. $2250 shipped PayPal, and also I have no problems paying the fees. You can find me on POTN \"BurnerR\" here is my number as well 843-340-9561.

Again, with good feedback on some high ticket items already at what seem to be really good prices, you never know. It would cause me a bit more to research (did you call and talk to the person on the phone?), etc. but it still could be legit. Again, do your research, find out more about the people you buy from, etc, but this doesn\'t quite yet seem like a full-blown scam. Certainly cause for concern at this point, but let\'s keep the torches in check until Fred does his research as well.
Regarding his name change, he requested a name change on POTN a few weeks back due to the confusion around what others might think CA meant.
Original Name: BurnerR
Requested Name: rsburnsca
Reason: I want to use my first, and middle enitials with my last name Burns and where I am located
CA As in Canada. Want users to understand my username a little more and know where I am located. Also I used the name with my old email years back.
