I am trying to sell my car on Craigs list, and got a response from what I believe is a scam. "Murray Millen" says "Thank you for getting back to me.Can you assure me that it is in good state and that i will not be disappointed with it.I'm ready to pay your asking price and to be honest, but the issue is I'm with the US MARINE and I'm not in my own state now I'm now at the Marine Corps Base Quantico Quantico, Virginia and use of mobile phone is not allow at the military base . But I'm able to access email anytime as we will make use of laptop so my only quickest payment option is PayPal as i can send money via PayPal anytime. Since I'm requesting this transaction to be done via PayPal....."
He writes with bad English and many grammar mistakes, and also says he will add extra money for a private car company to pick the car up.

This same person tried to buy my vehicle off of Craigslist, he said the same exact thing. I kept telling him I did not have a PayPal account and he made sure to tell me that contacts to bank account. Needless to say, I did NOT fall for it.
