READ THIS AND SEE IF ANY OF IT FITS >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

 

 

THIS IS A TYPICAL PAYPAL SCAM.

They encourage you to accept paypal saying its the only way they can pay.

You will get/got a "fake" email that looks as though it is from paypal.....it isn't.

If the item requires shipping they will tell you that they will pay you extra and you get an email from paypal (which is NOT from paypal) saying you must pay the agent via western union / moneygram BEFORE the funds are released to you.

They are not interested in the vehicle, they just want the western union etc funds and you will never see money in your paypal balance.

They also threaten legal action...have a laugh at that one and ignore it as its rubbish.

Paypal NEVER tell you to send an item before the payment is showing in your paypal account.

Paypal NEVER expect you to use a rival money transfer service.

Also their is no seller protection on paypal for any type of motor vehicle.

Delete any emails and ignore the scammers.
