Too big to fail

Yup; even the picture looks like the one the last time this scam was pulled. Looks like a hijacked account - no sales since January, and with "chevy" in the username probably doesn't dabble much in $20k Porsche engines...

Agreed, smells like a scam. Not only has there been no activity since January, but out of all of the transactions not one has been as a seller. Looks like the account was used to buy sportscards.

Ask the guy if you can come over to look at it in person. You will find out he is "out of town on business" or "just leaving for a trip", etc. and can only ship the motor to you, yadda, yadda, yadda.
Total scam. TT

Old Dominion is the one the scammer was using from New Orleans.
