I listed a power wheelchair/scooter on Craigslist. The following are emails I received in reply to the ad.
Hello my name is lisa i will like to know of you still have the wheelchair with you for sale
Hi,
Thank you very much for the details. So Sad im buying this for myself (im an handicapped and i need it to move myself), for this reason, I will not be able to come and see it and i would have call but due to the nature of my health i can speak loader so am not using phone, but I will take your word that its in good condition. Just to let you know that you will not be responsible for shipping and handling. I have made an arrangement with a shipping company That will come to your location for pick up. Kindly provide me your full name and address, so i can forward it to the shipping company to calculate the pick up cost for me. Please get back to me as soon as possible.
Am in (Personal Info Removed), i trust your word and i believe what you have said that the unit is in good condition that is the reason have arrange for the shipping company that will come for the pick up, so once i have the address where the unit will be pick up i will forward it to the company to calculable the pick up cost for me. Awaiting your reply
Regards
Thanks you so much. I have forwarded the address to the shipping company so they can calculate the pick up and delivery cost for me to make the payment. I'm sure they will contact you soon after i make the payment. I would like you to know that the payment will be made via PayPal, All you have to send me is your PayPal email address so I can make the payment immediately. Also I will be including the pick up cost with the total payment which is $450 so you will help me send it to the shipping company via Western union money transfer as soon as you receive the payment from PayPal. I would have done it myself but I'm an handicapped and am at home and the only method of payment they accept is this, i cant walk and that's why i ask for this help. Note i will also send addition of $50.00 USD as western union charges, i am a little incapacitated... I will appreciate your help
God Bless You,
Regards
After doing some research, found out it was a scam.
