.................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. ......You are exactly right this is a pure scam and THANK YOU for letting everyone know before an honest person gets a really bad deal ... This area code for the phone number is Cincinnati Ohio's, I know this because that is where I live. The correct area code for would have been either 317 or 463 , so thats the other red flag ... Scammers will do anything to scam you , its a shame how they have changed so many peoples lives with all the ways they have came up with cheating people. Ebay is another place to watch out for now too. I have been scammed several times this year . I have never had a bad feedback with over 1000 transactions. But July of 2017 was the very first time I was taken for a fool although I did get my money back it took 90 days . Then about once a month I was fooled again , all of them had positive feedbacks so its hard to determine who is fake and who is real. So just beware. Paying thru PayPal got me my money back but PayPal lost their no doubt. Thanks again
