The "face" contacted me to buy a car i had put on Craigslist. Then i got a fake email that looked like it was from PayPal. "Kevin" had put the entire purchase price into my PayPal account, plus $1000. But it was on "temporary hold" until i sent a Western Union money transfer to the shipper for $900.
The emails from PayPal and the shipper looked real. (NOW, i can see that they're fake.) But i sent the money. After all, "Kevin" had put all that money to cover it in my account, (NOT).
Now, they want $1900 more for other fees. And Kevin has put MORE than enough money in my account to cover it. Except it's all smoke and mirrors. (Except the money *i* sent.) And they're gonna have to wait a LONG time to get more money from me...
