He doesn't have any posts so I can't check his IP, what did the PM's say?

Asked if the two airplanes I have for sale were available back to back.... When it's someone that is brand new and it is pretty much the same message both times back to back, it makes one suspicious.

Or it could be someone with a pocket full of cash that is just is getting into jets and so just joined. I would certainly get back to him until he offers to send you a check for more than you are asking. or some other such scam.
Two identical posts is a red flag that would have me watching VERY close. But till he actually states the scam, I would still consider it a possible sale, everyone has to make a fist purchase.

There seem to be scammers on the prowl. I got a PM for a jet I have listed from a guy whose handle is davinand and just like yours, his join date was in August and only had 1 post. I spoke to him once and he seemed very interested in my jet and requested for more pictures later that evening. Sent the pictures to him and never heard back. My senses quickly went on alert and hope to find out more about him if he returns my call.
