I don't have a problem, or least a major issue, with someone wishing they had an AMG, but advertising that way is just wrong. Anyone looking for a C63 is going to know instantly that this is a wannabe.

So are you suggesting that he's suggesting that it was suggested to him that he would try to swindle people on Craigslist with pictures suggesting it's a different car than what he may actually suggest?

True, if BLKROKT did not say anything about it being "fishy," I would not have looked into it
