Same thing here. They offered to buy our RV through Paypal. Very poorly written txt message. Didn't try to offer less or ask any real questions. They just said that the price was agreeable and send them our e-mail address so they could paypal us the funds. Used to get phishing e-mails for things I was selling on Craigslist but this is the first time for a text.
This person claimed to be stationed at an Air Force base on Alabama currently n said exact same info about paypal...I told them if they were back in town n showed me their military id I would take more off the car...best way is to just tell anyone that they have to come to your bank personally to pay off loan and show their identity. If they won't it's a scam
