There was a post in here offering to give away a Kolyachonok helmet. When I asked for proof of shipping before sending money, I was told no. I asked for additional proof of ownership (picture with newspaper or paper with username and date) and was told no. He was asking for $30 to send from New Kingman Butler to Queen Creek.
He has a brand new account with no prior posts. The number he gave was a South Carolina number. He has since deleted the post due to me calling him out in a comment. Just be aware

This isn’t the first scam of exactly this type unfortunately. I’ve seen one on another hockey subreddit.
I have banned the user.
he is trying to run a similar scam through his own “sub” right now.
If he was legitimate, he wouldn’t be deleting threads.
I’m not a coyotes fan, but follow all team subs. I’ve seen this post on multiple at this point. The user deletes them following, because everytime I check their history they have no other posts. The username is recognizable each time because they’re clearly nefarious lol. Their posts are written in a similar way: “to a true fan” and the helmet that’s being given away is always to a lesser known player and never a star.
