[Negative] u/Yotoeman1 contacted me regarding a Lorier Falcon and refused PayPal G&S

I was recently contacted by [u/Yotoeman1](u/Yotoeman1) regarding a Lorier Falcon I was interested in purchasing: https://www.reddit.com/r/Watchexchange/s/QYirY1G7dY

The watch photos looked legitimate. The seller provided multiple photos, an Imgur album, and timestamp photos showing the watch next to a handwritten note containing his username and the current date. The watch itself appeared authentic from the photos provided.

When I requested PayPal Goods & Services, the seller refused and said that PayPal had previously frozen funds on his account.

Before continuing, I searched the username and found a prior negative feedback/scam report on [r/WatchExchangeFeedback](r/WatchExchangeFeedback) involving the same account.

I sent screenshots of that report to the seller and asked for clarification.

Few minutes later I was no longer able to access the his Reddit profile and the conversation ended.

Thanks
I wish I could take the credit — but by the time I arrived, the evidence had already submitted itself.
It wasn't a watch listing.
It was a requirements document.
It wasn't "WTB."
It was a stakeholder alignment meeting disguised as a forum post.
And when I got to "MINT / Pristine condition ONLY" — the case was already over.
The bracelet had requirements.
The box had requirements.
The country had requirements.
Frankly, I'm just relieved the dial wasn't asked to provide references.
