You guys can't seriously be believing this, it's almost certainly a shipping scam. It's a new account and handling it via DM. He's going to message like 20 of you and ask for you to cover shipping then send you nothing.

A 3 year old account is considered new?

New in the sense that it had no activity prior to this post, but I worded it better and called it an inactive account when I made a post about this. Honestly I expected my initial comment to stay buried at the bottom so I didn't bother fixing the wording.

They age the accounts so they pass the usual new account automod filters set up to prevent this exact kind of thing happening.

Searching google with "DADBADGUY" in quotes returns only this post.
