Initial contact was made through a marketplace post which then went to a text message back-and-forth with the guy who said he was on a job with terrible cell service. He then forwarded an email from an equipment hauler/dealer that was holding an excavator for him the website seemed kind of legit. Where you could start the process to purchase said excavator.
