We have been made aware of a potential scammer currently using the name David Baker (who is highly likely to change this alias upon reading this alert).

His current tactic involves targeting users who have posted 'Wanted' adverts, falsely claiming to have the requested items available. Crucially, he will attempt to move your conversation away from the secure afors Private Messaging (PM) system. He does this deliberately to bypass our security measures, which are specifically designed to identify scam patterns and protect our community.
