I received the following email in regards to a Craigslist posting:
Thank for your mail. I'm satisfied with the condition of it as
advertised in the listing, i will like to add $100 to your final price
for you to keep off from all offer, and consider it sold to me alone as
i am serious with this. I would like you to know that i am really
interested in buying this for my father, payment will be through PayPal
and the pick up will be arranged by me as i will have my agent come
down to pick it up... I will be waiting to hear from you, and i will
like you to send me the name and email address on the PayPal account
to send the payment and send me more pics of this item if available
since i would not be seen it in person so i can pay it right away I am
a busy at work and do not have much time around me. If you don't have
paypal account yet, it is very easy to set up, go to
http://www.paypal.com and get it set up. Looking forward to your
response.
Thanks and reply asap.
Regards.
Morgan.
Then when I replied to please call me by phone to discuss the transaction, I received this email:
Thanks for the message. Due to the nature of my work i would love to
talk to you but phone calls making and visiting of website are
restricted but i squeezed out time to check this advert and send you
an email regarding so I am not allowed to get out of the unit or give
calls whenever I want. Please let me know if you accept my offer also
am online whenever you sent me message i will know that so do not
worry if you want to contact me so let me have your paypal email
address so that i can send the money to you
So that is when I started to do some digging and found this website. It seems that he has attempted to do this a few other times.
