Almost ****med!

I whatsapped them looking for a specific pair of Vans shoes I couldn't find online. I exchanged messages with a very nice gentleman who was very well spoken and accommodating. When if came time to pay I asked for a picture before I paid. As I was getting them delivered all the way to the western Cape. He sent a photo of the shoes that looked very natural and good, but I though I should just double check. I google lensed the photo and got an exact match of the photo from a French website. Safe to say I dodged a bullet. Don't trust. Its a ****!
