Be aware!
I post a camera to sell on Gumtree. after 30mins, received this email.
We emailed for a while then I asked the business card of NZOG, She can't have it so sent her driver license that has been matched with her email on the email. Then I googled NZOG I've found some scam story from Paypal.
The same company name, similar story.
Name: Kathleen <removed>
<removed>
Thanks for the reply am buying it for my only daugther for a gift due to the sucess in her exam so whats your final price and i will like you to send me some picture of it, i work with New Zealand Oil and Gas (NZOG) and we are presently offshore in New Zealand Taranaki Basin on kapo project so I won't be able to come for the inspection due to the nature of my work, also i will be paying via paypal or you can alternatively send your bsb and acct number if you have no paypal acct and i will arrange for the shipping.

This person claiming to be Theresa <removed> with a hotmail dot com address starting with <removed> emailed me with the same tale about NZOG.
Definitely a scam. I can only suggest reporting them, blocking their email and wishing them a nice day.
By the way, this one bobbed up on Gumtree within an hour or two of posting my ad. I guess it's a full time job for these people trying to rip everyone off.
Ok, hope that helps.
