Keep in mind that gmail.com and outlook.com addresses are freely and routinely created by scammers and spammers. One thing that probably helps is to check someone’s posting history here and, even then, then use caution. (But beware of posts that seem kind of “generic”. Lots of forums, including this one, are getting posts from chatbots these days. We're filtering out lots of these but some may get through.)

Thanks Dave, appreciate your vigilance. I only notice after I paid that tyer534 hadn't ever posted, next time I will do some more due diligence.
