I posted a WTB in the members for sale forum and everyday it seems a 0 or 1 post member sends me a pm asking me to email them for payment.

I have seen some of that also. A few of these accounts are 1 or 2 post accounts that are a couple of years old. Do bots create or own those accounts or do people activate them and let them sit dormant until they need to burn a new group of people?

Yeah, I think I tried the sale forum a time or two with the same results. I'll stick to CL and OfferUp.
