It's a warning to other members to beware when selling parts and make sure you get good photographs and even mark the parts so that they can be recognised.

I'd be perfectly happy if you named and shamed the scammer to prevent others being ripped off in the future.

Big +1 to that, I invested in one of those UV pens and torch security things a while ago, anything I sell gets marked with my signature, also handy for marking things like your phones, tablets even the expensive stuff in your house, you never know when it could come in handy one day.

As well as having things marked, I have quite a few things registered here www.immobilise.com

On things that might be candidates for disassembly/modding (like a cluster) another idea would be to add small drops of paint (nail polish) across seams and sides of screws - and document them, as [anti]tampering indicators...

I never thought about doing this but well worth doing for the sake of 5 mins.
