Pawel Update
Thanks to everyone that have kept us informed about this crook. Your warnings helped me spot the con right away. He just listed on Craigslist again:
Original German Fallschirmjager M38 Helmet/ET68
Original German Kriegsmarine M35 Helmet
Original German Waffen SS M42 Helmet/Q66
I inquired about the items and got the following reply almost immediately:
Hi,
Thank you for your answer. I live in Poland (EU) now. I lived in Indianapolis for the last 2 years but I already got back home to Poland. I have an interest in WW2 history for a long time. From time to time i take my metal detector and detect places of historical interest and local battlefields. I am sending the photos of the helmet.
I have other militaria, i am looking for someone i could cooperate for a long time.
Sincerely,
Pawel

Re: Pawel Update
Powel has been trolling forums and any site he can spew his junk!!You are lucky you weren't taken like other collectors! CDR

Re: Pawel Update
I was hoping to hear that he'd been arrested and had the book thrown at him, but at least we have a rough idea that he, or someone pretending to be the rather elusive character is still around and not let our guard down.
Thanks

Hello again: Thank you for your answer. Well..., I am glad to hear we could make a deal. I already sent to you my credentials and references I received from English archives. I am sending to you my photo and my old driving licence. I hope it will help to trust me a little. However, if you want to make a deal we have to proceed it as soon as possible. I am traveling in a short time and I can not wait 3 weeks. Is any way you could arange the "payment" now ?. I could send the parcel with the helmets the same day. I made a decision to sell something from my collection as I am gathering funds for my research trip. If not - I will have to find the other buyer by the auction house. Maybe you have someone who could take care about the bank transfer behalf you.
As a delivery method I prefer Fed-Ex or DHL Express Mail as they give us the opportunity to track the parcel online. That is my bank account information:

MORE CONTACTS Hello

You should know something about my business policy. If you have an interest in any items from my collection - please let me know. My proposal is: if you will spend half of the payment - I will send the items to you and you will pay the ballance as soon as you receive them. All the items are genuine. If you want I can send addittional photos. Personaly, I am looking for someone I could cooperate in the future as I can get more genuine items from my close friends. I am an archivist but from time to time I take my own detector and detect some places of historical interest or local battlefields. If you want I can send to you some photos I made during my "detecting trips".
I hope we will find a way to establish long term relationships and cooperate in the future. I understand we just start building our mutual trust. If you want I can send to you my EU Passport and EU Driving Licence. By the way, we both living in European Union.
As a payment way I prefer bank transfer. As a delivery method I prefer recommended courier mail like DHL or Fed-ex as they give us the possibility to track the parcel online.
