Thanks to all who posted this scam and saved our behinds. If you think it's too good to be true - IT IS!!! This scammer is evolving; they had no number just "unknown" and said exact same as TJF poster above; as follows:
"I'm okay with the price and condition, I am ready to buy it now as a gift for my Son, I am at sea at the moment as i am a marine engineer and due to the nature of my Job,so l won't be able to come and check it?if u can send the recent pic to my email address
[email protected]"
2nd response goes: I have arranged for a pickup agent (Shipper) who will be coming to pick it up as soon as the payment is made and i'll like to pay u thru paypal and do ----------- then the post just dies, remains unfinished. Thinking about getting him to send a "shipper" and have a cop bust 'em. Any comments or suggestions on that??? Will meet in public & alert police first to arrange. Should I bother?? Would this cause me trouble? Hoping to stop these thieves but nothing happened to the guys on wallstreet, know what i mean? Things are so bad now ya even gotta wonder if the guy doing this scam report is the guy doing the scam even. Not paranoid but pissed & very cautious. All suggestions welcome.
