I just received this e-mail this morning when trying to sell a quad on Craigslist. He tells me he is a petroleum engieneer and is off shore. His name on the e-mail was "David <removed>" and he ends this e-mail with Donald and the e-mail is almost identical to the previous poster in July 2011. Seriously **bleep** me off that people are like this, trying to get stolen money filtered through a middleman. Thank God my "something is wrong" feeling surfaced in a prior e-mail. Told this Jerk I would NOT go to western union and wanted nothing to do with paying shipping charges. Hopefully this jerk does not find someone else to scam....
Hello [I removed my name here, had both 1st and last], I was just about to make the payment when i had this little problem with the picking up,I got an email from my agent..i taught i included that in my previous email.he said he won't come and pick up unless i pay him the agent commission fee first in order to be able to schedule a pick up time ,and my pick up agent head quarters and all commission payments made for pick up, from anywhere in the world is sent to their head quarters and the only form of payments they accept is western union money transfer and i tried to pay online but i will need a credit card which i didn't bring along, and there is no post office(there is usually a western union section in have to ask you to help me with the pick up fees, i will include the $600.00USD they charged to pick it up and take it my home(1st class treatment), to the payments i will send through PayPal. After i have made the payments and it has been confirmed by PayPal, i will need you to help me send the $600.00USD to my pick up agent through western union money transfer, the western union money transfer can be made at a western union office near to you,there is always a western union agent in most western union or online at www.westernunion.com . I will make total payment of $2,200.00USD for the Payment ,$1,600.00USD for the Item ,$600.00USD for the Pick-Up fee and $100.00USD for Western Union Charges. Kindly get back to me with your Home Address for me to forward it to the Pick-Up Agent for them to schedule time and date for Pick-Up. Regards. Donald.
