Hello there, well apparently those a spread all over.Please allow me to contribute:
From: "Michelle Segev" < msegev101@gm­ail.com > Hi Again,
This is just to get you informed that i have
finished sending the
payment through paypal and i know you should
have received the
confirmation messages from paypal by now so make sure you check your
inbox and junk message folder for the
confirmation email cos i have
received the receipt here and the money has been
completely removed
from my paypal account. According to paypal's instructions, I have
added extra €3450 to take care of the bills so
mail me
immediately you receive the confirmation.
Thanks for the business. P.S Check your junk/spam folder if you dont have
paypal's email in your inbox
cos it sometimes filters in there.Get back as soon
as possible. Michelle
Firstly i was surprised and answer of mine was:
Hey, i do recive notification but don't understand
why over 9000 quids, the deal it's for 6500 and
should be scot free or whatsoever! Will manage to refund those
extra 3G to you ASAP. Be in touch, and waiting for
your agent. Cheers !

Poor me , but after her mail was clear to me :
O lord, what fools these mortal are.... Me include !
However a bit curious about how it's gone be iv sent another mail:

We'll i used to be concerned about this shipping
fee because i wouldn't intend to ship car from
Europe to China, if you understand what i
mean.However im not worried at all.When i
receive a money in my account,car would be
transferred ( not shipped ) to name which you point.Regarding Paypal policy, my lawyer at
Hampshire it's already after them to clarify why
they hold funds in it. Take care and will be in
touch....
Iv been already alert paypal by open a case ofcourse.And meanwhile :
First of all, I want you to know that the payment
cannot be
canceled due to the fact that the money has been
removed from my account and
has been kept in escrow by paypal and according
to the policy, you have to first send the shipper's fees through
western union and mail
the mtcn and transfer details to paypal for
verification and
immediately they confirmed that you have truly
sent the money, then your account will be credited immediately. I want
you to find all
means of getting the money either you borrow
from friends or relations
because your account will be credited by paypal
within few hours after they receive the mtcn from you and then you can
be able to return
every money from wherever you borrow. I am
also a Mother and a woman of
Integrity and i cannot and will never lead you
astray because i have over 25 people working under me and i am very
honest to them.
I want you to know that paypal will not hesitate
to take legal actions
against you if you do not send out the money as
they requested and the consequences of there legal actions is always bad
so i dont want this
kind of thing to happen to you.
Make sure you try and send out the money asap
and keep me informed on
the progress....
Splendid isn't !
Thank god iv realise fast enough about it, and hope (unfortunately ) people's would have second thoughts about offers like this.
In bottom line Europe buckle up, because China its on the front door !
Regards from sunny Cyprus . :beer:

Sellers should be very suspicious of people who contact them by SMS/text wanting contact by e-mail claiming to be a buyer.

Most likely they are scammers using a free online SMS/text service that doesn't allow replies.

If they're using a bulk SMS/text service they're definitely a scammer. Try making a call back on the number they've used.

CAR ADVERTS - If a car seller mentions escrow - he's scamming you Never ever for any reason pay anything until you have seen and inspected the vehicle
