Question for anyone using Numista, possible scam going on?
Post Body

Hello,

I recently created this account for managing my sales, because I am trying to resell some of my coins.

First time I joined Numista on my main account back in 2023, I got a message from a random guy, in the first 24 hours after joining. I was new to collecting, at least on Numista, so I messaged him back. He asked for coins from my country. I offered a handful, and he offered 2 coins back. Looking back, those coins are actually worth a lot so I do not think anyone would be exchanging those. He took the conversation out of Numista, and messaged me through e-mail. We almost got to trading but I just ghosted him losing interest in the coins, not knowing if they are fake or not. He offered to record himself sending it through mail because I showed fear that he might scam me. That was the end of the story, until I opened this account, receiving a message from a similar profile. It described the person as a student liking geography, with a Euro coin profile picture. Looking back, the account that messaged me was exactly the same, same background, profile picture, and message format. I do not see anyone discussing this, does anyone have a similar experience or a confirmation that this is indeed a scam?

Best regards

Hmmm, in that case I'd ask them for referrals from other numista members they've swapped with. Otherwise no dice

Possible to sell through ebay and see if the buyer has a profile with good feedback?
