But, how is he getting your money if he’s paying you? 


they send you money via zelle,  take the part, then report to zelle they sent it to the wrong person and get their money back.

Okay, whenever I’ve used Zelle I get a notification prior to finalizing the transaction that I better make sure everything’s correct because once it’s done it’s done and there’s no way to get back my money.

Likely they're getting bank info. Always be vigilant, I don't blame people for second guessing these days

 Be vigilant!

Remember if some newbie on the forum replies and says my friend has what you are looking for send an email to xxx@xx.com it is a fraud.
