Not an FT'er!
I'm guessing this person isn't an FT'er or it's someone who's selling their ex's miles - hopefully no one on this board is this dumb!
(Moderators, I thought this should be in Milesbuzz - move or delete as needed)

Unless, of course, the owner of the mileage numbers is being framed.

Actually, this may be legal.
I know that Delta does not allow the sale (or gift) of miles but it does allow me to use my miles to buy a ticket for someone else -- and there is nothing written on the website prohibiting me from selling that ticket.

The person whose FF numbers are posted there could be subject to someone fraudulently using his miles for an e-ticket for someone else. Bad idea.
