Hi all,

Came across this Instagram seller (?) or potential scammer... curious if anyone has ordered before with them. See below:


Thanks,

Don't want to judge the seller too quick but I'm leaning towards a potential scam account. There's an unusual variety of parts from pre-merger AMG steering wheels, W212 tail lights, M113K engine...some more demanding stuff like lots of rims, suspension and even an M119 6.0 engine! Best to request a particular photo to see if the seller can provide it.

Here's one post from mbzpartsdirect/mbzpartsonline

I found the same photo from mercedes.parts.maroc who seems to be using his alias in his for sale posts.
