Got a message from a "suspended" member

Hi folks! I've been looking for a good used Luxman EQ-500 phono amp (115v US-spec only) and got a message about one from a person that I can't reply to because the account is flagged as "user suspended". I'm assuming this is a warning that he or she is likely a scammer?

I would like to think so, but in his message that I can't reply to he's asking $2,500 and that's at least $1,500 below any of the legit ads I'd seen here that are closed sales. It seems I got no way of getting in touch to flesh him out.

Move along. Buying online, from a stranger, sight unseen, with virtually no legal recourse, is risky enough.

I still wish I could communicate just to be sure it's not someone nearby that I could but.

Priced well below market value is classic scammer bait and user suspended.

I would move on.
