I advertised a car on Autotrader and so far have had over 1000 hits!!! Received an e mail requesting more info...eventually agreed a price for settlement via Paypal.Received confirmation e mail from Paypal confirming that monies received BUT almost £1000 more than requested..."held" pending remittance via WESTERN UNION to a shipping agent
Obvious to me it was a SCAM and false PAYPAL e mail. Told sender it was a scam and cancelled any transaction
Received an ABUSIVE response
TAKE GREAT CARE
