The cropped photo, although weird, wouldn't be enough for me to put up a red flag. However, what MMF shared below is concerning.

Maybe the brother that OP’s friend is buying from isn’t as clueless as we were originally led to believe and maybe OP and his friend are being played. It’s possible. Someone is lying to someone. There’s just a lot of answered questions at the moment.
Got it. I wasn't aware of the bolded part, and that's definitely concerning.

Now I understand why the situation better, thank you for explaining.
