The scanner in the picture is almost certainly a BCD996P2. The serial number on the label and the model number printed on the front and rear panels match as does the record jack. The buttons on the right of the display are the same as on the 996P2, the BCT15 buttons are different. Finally, the BCT15/15X has a Uniden serial port on the front, this radio (as do all 996P2's) has a USB-Mini port on the front panel.
The display color is probably set to RED at medium brightness. Sometimes that is almost exactly the same color as the orangeness of the BCT15X. Side by side they are almost indistinguishable. Individual radios tend to vary a little in color.
While it has happened that people have replaced the front panel of a BCT15 with that of a 996, replacing the labels on the back, button caps and the programming port is much more difficult and there seems to be no evidence of that here. I do not know the seller but I have no reason to think he might be dishonest with this listing.
