BE CAREFUL!
I got contacted (through text) by an interested buyer for my phone that was posted on Kijiji, not an expensive one at all, $250..
He then continued by saying that he's "ok with the firm price", that he'd like me to ship it to an address AND will give me $100 EXTRA, without even asking me how much will shipping be exactly. I said okay, to go along with his shenanigans, he then emailed me a phony page with the title:

"Notification Of An Instant Payment From John James From TD (Trust Bank)"


I will put the email content below but basically it came from this email :
Interact Transfer: [email protected]
Saying once I enter the shipment number, the money will be transferred into my account automatically.. WATCH OUT PEOPLE
IT IS A SCAM. THE MONEY WILL NOT BE DEPOSITED AND THEY WILL TAKE YOUR CASH + THE PRODUCT
DONT GET FOOLED

Heres the exact content of the email:

I got hit by the same scam

A user ask for my phone by text, offeres me the price + 150$ for shipping.

Says he pays by paypal or money transfer.

Ask for my email and Full Name.
The worst thing is that they want the tracking by a response email with no subject. It took a few text for him to stop playing me.
Send me a bogus email thats looks like this:

The same scam JUST happened to me as well from someone named "Jackson Paul" with phone number "+1 (909) 312-6968".

Literally seconds after I posted my Macbook on Kijiji I got a text from someone in the States (I live in Canada) offering exactly what I asked for + $150 shipping fee without even confirming how much shipping really costs and wanted me to ship it to the attention below:

Name: Jackson Paul
Address: 473 Mundet Place Ste US278160
City: Hillside
State: New Jersey
Zip code: 07205
Country: United States

Then he proceeds to ask for my "Full name + email address" so he can send the money through e-transfer immediately. At the time I believed him so I provided it. Seconds after I received a "e-Transfer notification email" that looks really fake. The content of the email is pasted below:

"Hello ,

And the funny thing is I was in the middle of resetting my computer back to factory settings and I ran into a problem so I told him about it. He didn't even care, he asked me to ship it as is and immediately so I started getting really suspicious. I confronted him, asking if he was a scam and he said "I am a student and I need to laptop immediately for my studies." I sent him this thread and called him out as a scammer and he stopped replying me.

Don't fall for it this is definitely a scam!!!

Mod Note: This post was made by the barely literate, dumb scammer himself in an attempt to avoid losing victims. We are leaving it here to show how far these pathetic criminals will go to steal from their victims.

Fuck who is calling Jackson Paul a scam i am the Jackson Paul i am never a scam you never obeyed e-transfer rules and regulation due to online buying and selling. Fuck who you are.
CALL THE GOVERNMENT.

Hello dumb scammer Jackson Paul.

You really are dumb aren't you, thinking that you can come here ab protest your innocence and that we will believe you.

Your barely literate emails gives you away for what you are, a dumb Yahoo boy.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.
