Selling a motorcycle on CL, got a text at 2 am, same deal, [email protected], claims she's using a pager phone and wants me to send an email with more pictures. Googled her email and she has a lot of scam reports. NO SALE! hahaha.
responded to an auto on craigslist with a text indicating interest in the vehicle and an email. Email later wanted pay pal information for vehicle purchase without ever seeing or driving the vehicle. Shadiness all around.
We just posted a MB SUV on Autotrader and received the same odd email in less than an hour. The name on the email is Maria Murphy and she said the money would be put in Pay Pal account and tranporter will pick up the SUV.
do u still have the vehicle listed at autotrader.com available for sale?let me know the condition and the firm price email me back [email protected].. Liz
Thanks for the mail. I am interested in buying the vehicle and I hope everything is in perfect condition. I'm ready to pay your asking price but not cash in person because I'm currently in a conference and calls are restricted at the moment and my only quickest payment option is PayPal, its safe fast and secure and i will be responsible for the PayPal transaction charges so you can get your expected amount. If you don't have an account with PayPal, its pretty easy to open one,Just log onto www.paypal.com and sign up. I hope we can make the purchase as fast as possible? As I am buying it for my dad and I'm pretty very sure he will love it, he's an handy man, so if there is anything that need to be fixed in it just let me know he will handle it. I have a mover that will come for the pick up once payment clears in your account and he will handle the documentations and changing of ownership on my behalf. I'll look forward to hearing from you with the information below so that I can make the payment this morning as soon as possible.
