This email set off red flags from the start, I posted a car for sale and the first reply I got was this:
Name: Greg
Phone:
Email: [email protected]
Question
Good day, i want to buy your vehicle and i will like to know the present condition of it and also will like to know when last it was used. get back to me with your final selling price if you still have it available for sale. Regards, Greg
I replied :
It's in great shape, I'm a private seller, so I use it every day. $4500 would be the lowest I would be able to take.
Thanks,
He came back with:
Thanks for mailing back,i really appreciate it, am really interested in it, and i will appreciate it if you can send me more pictures if you have cause due to the nature of my job,phone calls making are restricted. I can't be able to come and view it and pay in cash but i have contacted a pick up company and they will be coming to pick it after i have paid for it,i can only pay through Paypal as i don't have access to my bank account online as i don't have internet banking,but i have my bank account attached to my PayPal account and this is why i insisted on paying you through PayPal,so kindly get back to me with your full name and paypal email address so i can proceed with the payment now, but if you don't have an account with them you can set up a paypal account via http://www.paypal.com it very easy and fast, it wont take you much time to do that,I will proceed with the payment as soon as you send me your paypal email address and contact the pick up agent to arrange a convenient pickup time with you,once payment has been transferred and cashed.
I believe i can trust you on this transaction cause i need a faithful and loyal person to transact business with.
I hope to read back from you soon.
Thanks,
Greg
I Think I'm just going to ignore any future emails, it sucks that the first email I get about my car is a scammer, LOL.
