More Car Scams

08 Oct 2010

Last night I received an SMS enquiring as to whether the car was still for sale, it included an email address in which to reply to (snoxmarcus99@hotmail.com). So I did. Here's the response I received:

Thanks for the swift response...I am willing to know the lowest price of it.due to the nature of my job and location...i will not be able to come for inspection,am a very busy type as i work long hours everyday,i have gone through your advertisement and i am satisfied with it. As for the payment..i will be paying you via the fastest and secure way to pay online(PayPal). I have a private courier agent that will come for the pick up after the payment have been made ...so no shipping included. You can now send me your PayPal email so i can pay in right away and also include your address in your reply.If you don't have a paypal account, you can easily set up one...log on to www.paypal.com.au and sign up. its very easy.I await your reply asap.

Alarm bells anyone?

I replied:

Mate, you already tried scamming me two days ago. The police will be getting these contact details as well, now fuck off!

Sick and tired of these people, they really are bottom-feeders.
