Is this a scam?

I sell a domain name now and then. But never before on Flippa. So wonder if I can get some comments about the following:

  • I am suspicious of offer made in an email from protential buyer (sent legit from Flippa.com email).
  • It's a message making an offer, but not an actual offer the way I think Flippa works.
  • Buyer message says they are willing to buy a site I listed there and makes a specific offer in dollars in the message.
  • Buyer wants a response to an email address outside of Flippa.com.
    • (Note: I have no intention to circumvent Flippa and won't. Period.)

But if I log in to Flippa.com there is no message or discussion for the listing in the Flippa account?

How do I make sure this isn't a scam?
