It's a scam ... I received text today from this number asking me to email them. They saw my ad on Kijiji (auto) and want to by my trailer for in-law in UK blah blah blah ...
Any ways look at postings under 800com it gives multiple reportings of this same number and what they were interested in.
Be thankful you, I and many others searched this site
Sincerely
MJ
That's the exact wording of the text they sent me this morning. I looked up the area code to see where they were and saw that it was a Maryland number (I'm in BC) and thought it strange, so I looked up the number itself and found this site. I just wish I had found this info before sending back a text telling them the condition and final price. Lol. Well, now I know. :)
I had the same txt as above. My ad was on Kijiji...watch out people. I called PayPal and the advised me that many scams are going around like this online. They use their credit card to pay for the vehicle in multiple transactions, then fight with the credit card company to get the money back. PayPal was great to deal with.
