Why not use a trusted escrow on this forum?

"Willing to pay $500" for using an external escrow service makes this purchase offer look suspicious.

Using a trusted escrow on this forum makes the transaction less complicated and far more transparent. External escrow services are prone to risks when cryptocurrencies are being traded.

The offer of $500 to use an external escrow and the new account with just 1 post are red flags.

I'm also trying to understand how your account (Hendrix minus the i) relates to this profile:
