Hello Frank,good to read from you.Am interested in your bike and am
okay with the asking price, would love to go ahead with the deal right
away because this meets my
perfect search for time being now,am on duty now,so coming to your
residence for inspection won't be possible, so you have to assure me
that its in condition described. You may now consider me a favorite
buyer and if possible withdraw the posting from the site immediately
so that I can be rest assured that it is all mine .
Like I said earlier, I'm very busy with my job, as I work as a
geophysical investigator and am currently in the mountain until may
24, so I will be paying you online via my PayPal account which is
attached to my bank account because it is the only form of payment
that I have access to right now and also because of its good security
nature. If you are interested in selling it please provide me with
the following information:
1)Your full name
2) Paypal email address,
3)Address for pick up
4)Your personal mobile #
Kindly get back to me with the required for us to proceed,You will not
be responsible for the shipping as shipping agent will be coming over
to your address for the pick up after I have made the payment and you
have received the confirmation of Payment from PayPal. Do hope to read
from you asap
I just got a text from the same number wanting me to email him about a bike I have for sale on craigslist. He gave the email [email protected]. I'm glad I googled him email and number before I replied!
I got the exact same e-mail for a motorcycle I currently have listed on Ebay and Cycle Trader. I knew it was B.S. This person did not ask one single question about the bike. He did not want to know why I was selling, did not attempt to negotiate a lower price. He did not even ask me about the maintenance history! No questions whatsoever. He just said that he was O.K. with the asking price and send me your paypal info. Who does that!?
Here it is...copy and pasted his e-mail. I got it earlier today. smh...lmao
