I was selling a car on KIJIJI. Michael Burke contacted me to buy it however he was living overseas at this time. He said he would send the money via PAYPAL to me and a shipping company would be coming to pick it up. I then received an email from PAYPAL saying they received the money from him but needed me to send $1000 to cover the shipping charges and they had already received this money from Michael and would forward it on to me once I had confirmed I sent the money. Apparently, as he explained, there was no Moneygram office where he was, and Moneygram was the only type of payment the shipping company accepted. So I sent the money to:
KUMARAN KRISHNAN
Lot PT 3917, JALAN TERMINAL KLIA
SEPANG 64000 MALAYSIA
PAYPAL then sent me another email saying the shipping company requested money for insurance so I sent that as well. They were going to forward me the total money after that was sent.
Then I got another email from PAYPAL requesting more, which is when I called the real Paypal and found out this was a fraud.
