On two different lists I've seen a For Sale Post of a Kenwood 990, a Yaesu 9000 and Icom 7800 for half of what the going rate is. So be careful. All three radios were in the same post.

He is trying to sell Icom Pro III or other amateur radios on different websites (http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com...7573126.html); and forums (http://forums.flexradio.com/Topic6542-40-1.aspx). Asking to wire money via Western Union and promising to send the equipment using fake website www.betaexpress.uk that is allegedly operating all over the world. I have tried to buy this Icom Pro III for $ 1300 and fell for the scam. If interested - can give more details in private e-mail.
