If you're dealing with someone who sounds scammy but has a long history on the board, go back through their posts - you might find they hadn't posted in 4 years until recently. That would be a MASSIVE red flag if someone reappears out of nowhere to start soliciting deals.
If you're quickly approached by someone offering to pay, immediately, more than you quoted: don't get baited.
