Scam! From Robert williams
Thanks a lot for the email. Am buying it for my son who just graduated ontop of his class in National University in California, he studied Business Law and Professional Ethics Minor and am so proud of him . I want it as a surprise package to appreciate him towards his achievement and to be delivered before my arrival Wyoming as my family lives in Wyoming .
I work with Animal Planet (Call Of The Wild Man and we are presently offshore in US. We do not have access to phone at the moment,its 15days off and 15days on,which is why I contacted you with internet messaging facility. Where is it located at the moment?Does it have any history I should be aware of? and why are you selling if you don't mind my asking.I am already in talks with the courier that will handle the pick-up and delivery it in Wyoming.
As regards the payment, I can pay you through direct bank deposit,using ppal instant bank wire transfer service, I will need your bank details.If you are not comfortable with that, you can set up a paypal account proper at www.paypal.com and I will make the payment through paypal, this way, all I will need is your paypal email address.
Cheers!!

Thanks for sharing this phishing email with the community!
This is a known scam so the more awareness we have on the topic the better.

Just received the same spam message via a cars.com ad. SMS text first (972-XXX-5806) then email from James Bohrer (jamesbohXXX @ gmail.com).
Thanks for the post!

I have been inandated with text messages since putting my car on craigslist and http://www.carsonlinefree.com/.
Looks like scams from these phone numbers and emails. It really helped that other people posted in forums about these things or else I would have fallen victim. Thank you!
