OF COURSE it's a scam. What sort of "verification" could you possibly want or need ? Rest assured that you absolutely would be asked for money at some point --- after you bite on the baited hook. Some imaginary fee or tax will suddenly be "required in order to proceed with the transaction."
Put those big dollar signs out of your eyes and out of your mind for just a moment and take two steps back to examine this "offer" objectively.
Question: Why would any legitimate person cold call you out of a clear blue sky and offer to buy something from you that has little or no market value in the first place, let alone offer you serious money for something that can very easily be obtained any day of the week for a very few dollars (or even for free)? C'mon now...
Answer: It would never happen. This is a lame and obvious scam attempt, plain and simple. Participate at your peril.
