I just listed a vehicle for sale on autotrader. Right away, the scammer(s) came out of the woodwork. They tend to jump on these things first as they 'troll' for new listings. I put in one key phrase from his email and came up with an identical match of his entire email with the exception of the excuse scenario as to why he couldn't buy the vehicle himself in person. Here it is and I hope this helps others out there as I read some of the other posts here from people who knew or unfortunately learned the hard way: His email: (notice he didn't say open his email with my name or end with his name, btw his first email to me was very polite and used the word kindly which is usually associated with respect) Do you have the extra keys, Do you have the spare tire, Where did you get your car serviced, Have you ever had any transmission repairs and Is there any rust on the vehicle? I'm ready to pay your asking price but not cash in person because I am serving in the US army and currently been deploy to NATO Air Base Geilenkirchen, Germany and calls are restricted at the moment and my only quickest payment option is PayPal, its safe fast and secure and i will be responsible for the PayPal transaction charges so you can get your expected amount. If you don't have an account with PayPal, its pretty easy to open one, Just log onto www.paypal.com and sign up. I hope we can make the purchase as fast as possible? As I am buying the vehicle for my dad and I'm very sure he will love this vehicle, his a mechanic and a handy man, so if there is anything that need to be fixed in it just let me know he will handle it. I have a mover that will come for the pick up once payment clears in your account and he will handle the title for me. I look forward to hear from you with the information below. Your PayPal e-Mail Address : Full name: Firm Price: Zip code for pickup: Thanks
