Yes everyone. He contacted me this morning saying he got my number from a friend.

At some point he mentioned that I should just google anything, he will have it for me.. 

I was hooked on a set of wheels "he has" (Retails for 40k) and he was willing to let it go for whatever I'm willing to give. (I offered 10k as a low ball, and he was fine with that) I then asked for more photos and he kept on sending the same pics and couldn't tell me if they are boost or non-boost.

HIS NAME IS JACO HENRY GOUWS. He has a business account number with the name Henry.com
It's too good to be true...

He is at it again. This guy has a pattern. Please check out the following:
-Whatsapp Business account.
-The Whatsapp name has a ".com" at the end.
-He loves to call you "Mate" in every message.

He targets wanted adverts. Always start the message with" I got your number from a mate that said you are looking for......"

Current scam number: 0711464456
He uses stolen ID cards to have as proof.
