Yes this Astronomywiki is a def scammer. Very recently he wanted to scam me on a deal for a hyperstar. He sounded a bit dodgy in the messages but when I asked for his number to have a phone conversation never heard from him again. These scammers are the lowest. I recommend having an actual phone conversation and viewing - FaceTiming the item for sale to confirm that it's legit. When you have a conversation with other amateur astronomers you can usually tell if they are legit. Listen to your gut instinct also.
If things sound too good to be true they usually are.
