I got a similar e-mail from someone wanting to buy my boat. Quote: Thanks for the reply, i am a marine technician and am always busy thats why l wont be able to check the item or call due to the nature of my work am buying this for my son as a Surprise gift so am willing to offer you the amount you required. I can only pay through PayPal at the moment due to the nature of my work, so all i will need is your PayPal email address or send me a paypal money request to my email and if you don't have a PayPal account yet, you can set one up at www.paypal.com <http://www.paypal.com> it cant take you less than 3mins to do that. I will be waiting for your PayPal email so l can pay. I have a pick up agent that will come for the pick up after payment has been sorted. l will be waiting for your reply asap I replied that it sounded fishy and if he's so eager to pay, send me a check and I would turn over the boat when the check cleared. I'm not sure what damage could be done by turning over your PayPal e-mail, but I'm not willing to risk it.
