the bit about the mutual friend is still hazy to me.

had the scammer messaged friend in the past claiming to be adz?

no, the scammer IM'ed the guy out of the blue apparently.

I get IM from the friend, who will remain anonymous at this time, saying "hey did you ask ADZ to IM me" which I say yes, because i dont have ADZ's contact info but I knew the friend did, so i said to contact me through that person.

so what happened is the scammer IM'ed the friend, and the friend linked to me without telling me that he had never seen this screen name before. so I was under the impression I was talking to the actual ADZ.
