If that’s true, how the hell did it get past the domain registrars??? Perhaps because it is a .top domain?

Re: Do you think this is a scam?
The whois report from https://www.scamdoc.com/view/273036 -- shows many address 928 E. Highland Ave. Ste F104 pmb#255 That's the address of a UPS Store.
When I googled for the full address one of the hits https://whoisology.com/street1 showed this suspicious fact: There are 1,777,967 domains associated with the street1 field within Whoisology's March 2020 archive. This has scam written all over it ..... After all, who wouldn't want to buy a radio from somebody who shares an address with Grand Canyon Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence? -- |

And beware - if you use PayPal to pay for this, and they come looking for the stolen property (they have your address and info) you will be out the item and the payment, as PayPal will not refund based on stolen status of an item. In fact, part of the scam might be to demand the item back under color of law (threat of prosecution).

They should call themselves “The $99.00 Store”!! Everything they “have” is $99.00!
