A Kijiji advertisement here as well. Received a text that they wanted to buy my item via a PayPal transfer and I sent them my email address tied to my PayPal account. I began to suspect that something was up when I googled the area code and it was identified as a Texas number and "she" said she was contacting me from Halifax. Changed my email address associated with PayPal.
I had gotten a text from this number about something I had on Kijiji for sale in eastern Canada. The person signed her email using the name Lindsay and the another email came and it was signed Carla. She wanted to buy the machine I was selling and said she sent me $ 2180.00 CAN and then I get an email from PayPal (fraud account made up by the scammers) telling me the money was being held until I pay $ 550.00 thar was added to my price to the shipping company via money gram and then to notify them once it has been done. Also said the buyer will not be permitted to reverse the funds before or after I have sent the shipping fees.
What a bunch of weirdos, they need to get a life!!!!!!!
