✅ Tips to Avoid Being Scammed

• Always verify the identity of someone contacting you about financial or legal issues — call the official organization using contact info you find independently (not from the message).

• Be extra cautious with emails/links, especially if they create urgency or fear.

• Never give out PINs, account passwords, or sensitive details to unknown contacts.

• If someone asks you to change vendor payment info, check with someone you have contacted before (e.g. via phone number you already had on file).

• For housing vouchers or government help: don’t pay to apply or to be included in a waiting list unless you confirm directly with the official agency.

2010 BMW M3

Up for sale is our 2010 BMW M3 in Alpine White over Silver Novillo leather. As can be seen from the photos and the title, this is a low-option spec of the E92 M3 meaning that this vehicle has the carbon fiber roof, manual transmission, no-EDC, and no infotainment, commonly referred to as "single hump." Modifications include an intake and an Active Autowerke exhaust. Mileage is also very low for this car, sitting at just above 60,000. This is a very special car in this configuration and we're sure the next owner will be thrilled to have it in their garage.

Hydroponics Growing System 

• INNOVATIVE AEROPONICS TECHNOLOGY: URBZUE Hydroponics Growing System Kit disperses water into micro-sized nutrient mist droplets within 1 seconds, washing the roots suspended in air. This simulates the natural air pockets found in healthy soil systems, enhancing plant access to oxygen and other atmospheric gases. This process improves root health and has been shown to boost growth rates by 50% to 200% in experiments.
