lovatoadams seems to be a scammer. Dm'd me a very generic message with a phone number to text. When I asked for tagged photos of the figure I was ghosted. Googled him and he's on other hobby forums posting the same generic message he sent me.
 
I was just PMd from someone listed on the scammer list as well and they left a cell #. You would think they would realize they have been outed??? I posted in the WTB forum and got a PM fairly soon after with pic of one for sale.
 
just added 3 new names to the list within 24 hours of searching for mms484 dr strange. got one google photo and 2 others with the same email address.
 
Np, yeah I can't hardly go a week with out running into one of them trying to scam me. Just added a new one today too.
After calling him him out on it I tried to message him to get his number to match it to the clown that tries to scam coco and got this message lol

Just joined, 0 posts and a very robotic response prompting me to email some rando in response to a WTB. I tell ya, the WTB section just seems to lure these folks in.
 
Thought this little scammer was kind of funny. He claims his friend specializes in one singe Hot Toys figure lol

Yup. Just got hit up by Sleeves926 as well. Same exact message.

Roger must not answer his calls too much as being a HT Jawa and Gonk specialist is very time consuming :)
 
I reverse image searched this to google. I just can't get a real person to sell me this damn set lol I have only had one person about 2 months ago that really had one. The next day he told me he would sell it for 300 then used paint to put a piece of "paper" with his name on it next to the figure. After that he emailed me a few times to name my price. After I told him no thanks. I never buy from anyone with all the red flags flying but it is fun to make these guys work.
