I actually did post on his thread a few days back, that he was likely a scammer and was trying to gather small amounts from multiple people to pull off a larger scam. However I edited my post later after he sent me a message.

Later I saw some other people vouch for him, which is also another reason I edited my post
Who were the vouches? Could be alts.
