I've been trying to get this scammer. He tried the same PayPal [***] with me. They falsify PayPal emails. But notice that the email is sent by someone else on the behalf of PayPal
Typical Scammer - Have a motorcycle for sale. Using the typical lines like "Can you assure me that the bike is in good condition and I will not be disappointed with it, and what is your last asking price". Via text.
this guy sent me the exact same txt to buy my bike - I thought it was odd that he didn't care if he even saw the bike in person or not. I gave him my paypal email address my name and my address. Can he do anything with that? I just sent a msg telling him that I looked up his # - thank goodness you wrote this... I would have been scammed big time.
Thank you,

(1/2)If you don't have an account with PayPal,its pretty easy, safe and secured to set up one. Just log on to www.paypal.com. You can link it to your bank
(2/2)account or credit card and as soon as payment is made, cleared and you have cash in hand.

I guess this must work on people otherwise they wouldn't do it?... I wonder how they scam you through PayPal?
Just to annoy them, I'm continuously calling this WINSTN SAL,NC GOOGLE number and replying to their texts with "SOUNDS GREAT! Give me a call and let's see what we can work out"
I just got a text from this number and always check this site to see if it's a scam. I hope this person gets caught soon for trying to scam an innocent victim trying to sell something online.
