True, but if the guy contacting you is the actual owner of the website you use to buy domains, his credibility increases enormously. He said this person was a customer on his platform. When that guy says "I have a website which is making 10k/year," and I already trust the domain platform he created because I use it as a customer, I believe him.
> I believe him.
Enough to be motivated to proceed with due diligence.
Whatever any potential buyer considers that to mean for them.
