They seemed legitimate at first other than the way they wrote was a little weird. This person said their name is James and wanted to buy a motorcycle I posted on KSL. They proceeded to ask me why I was selling, if their were any problems and how many previous owners the bike had so I thought it was a real buyer. But!!! They followed up my answers with the whole PayPal scam nonsense. That they were on a base and needed a mover to come get the bike for their FAMILY and how much their FAMILY would love it (key word to pull heart strings right?) so they said they had to use PayPal.... I responded with the fact that I've already had someone say something similar which was a scam and I need a way to validate their story. No word back yet! This one was the best scammer I've came across so far, if they had the same area code and didn't say they were "on base" then it would be basically believable. Can't find anything else on this number so hope this helps someone!
The Better Business Bureau has a whole write-up about this type of scam: https://www.bbb.org/council/news-events/bbb-s ... ith-paypal-con/. We had a similar experience posting on KSL.
