Thanks for your alert.
As shown in the screenshot, the scammer has 14 activity, so it is a newly registered account.

I am pretty sure the scammer will come up with a new account and try to scam someone else soon or later.

He is more than likely a scammer, no doubt, but in the interest of fairness he doesn't say anywhere in those PMs that he's selling the website, just the script.

In the first screenshot, there's, "Would you be interested in the site I showed you and also this new addition you want?"

Doesn't matter if it was the site or the script of the site, it was more than likely a scam. Good job on discovering this and warning us!

Confirmed to be 100% scam.

As the operator of the site family in question, I can tell you the site is definitely not for sale.

Our script, while we have not yet licensed it out, would potentially be available; however that price is a couple of orders of magnitude out! 0.5BTC?! I'm kinda insulted :D

Luckily you confirmed with the site's owner.
