Hello Seller,

 I'm Gary from Texas, i saw the ad you placed on EBAY in which you
stated that you have a Vehicle for sale,is it still unsold?i will be
paying you $4,980 please let me know if the price i offered is ok or
i should shoot it up a little bit.i wont be able to have a
proper look cos am presently off for work sailing, am a marine
engineer.my payment method is via paypal cos that is the only method
of payment i have access to here on ship perhaps paypal will protect
both parties from online fraud and i want a secure transaction cos its
my first time of buying item on the internet.i will handle the pickup
myself,my pickup company will come for the pickup after payment as
been confirmed by paypal.kindly get back to me with your paypal email
id or a payment so that i would be able to transfer the funds
out-rightly.Thanks and God Bless...

Is there a way I could loose my car with no payment?

Yes it's a scam - go thru the blog on this site you will see this story time after time with a few changes - anytime some one wants to send somebody to pick up an item have them pay cash

 Good Luck
