0 post user PM limit

[ar15barrels]

What are the PM mailbox limits for zero post users?

I have a zero post user who PM'd me and I had 2 rounds of responses and now his PM box is full so I can not respond on the 3rd go-around.

I know my box limit is 5000 but is the 0 post user group limit something very small like 5-10?

The user has no public email listed in his profile so all I can do to get his attention is to post a thread like this:

I don't think zero-post users are limited in PM number because of that. Rather, zero posts and limited PMs suggests that member did not complete the signup.

Hopefully he sees this and fixes it.
I got a response from him at 9:21am today but again I can not respond to it because I get the same "Gunhobby22 has exceeded their stored private messages quota and cannot accept further messages until they clear some space." message from the forum software after I hit send and it re-loads my pending PM with all the text I was trying to send.

He is a new user with an August 2023 join date so what you are saying makes sense.

I seriously doubt it.
Dude wants to come over to have me do work for him.
We have agreed upon a meeting time and a cost for the work.
It's kinda hard for me to get scammed when the person hands me THEIR $500+ set of parts and then they want to pick it up an hour later after I do the work.
I can hold on to their parts if they don't pay and the labor they will owe me is way lower than the value of the parts.

Maybe you can better explain how they might be trying to scam me though.

He needs a verified email address to complete his account config. The system sends an email to the address he provides with a link to verify a valid email address. Then he'll get more email space. There may be other parameters that limit this, but this is the one I'm aware of and have run into.
