I just completed the transfer and you would have received confirmation from Paypal.. so i want you to send me the address where the pick up would be made and i made an additional payment of 400eur for the shipping agent pick up fee and i am sure you noticed that, according to Paypal's policy you'll have to send the extra amount to the shipping company headquarters through Money Gram and then send the Money Gram money transfer information to paypal for verification, so that the total amount of 2,906eur can be released into your paypal account and the transaction can be finalized.Here is the info you need to send the fee to the shipping agent through Money Gram ...

Name: PAUL KIRKLAND
Address: 19 Transport Rd
City : Donetsk
State: Donetsk
Country: Ukraine
Postal Code : 85772

kindly proceed to Money Gram office around you or any local post office around you and make the transfer of 400eur via Money Gram to PAUL KIRKLAND in Ukraine so that the 2,906eur can be released into your account and we can continue with necessary preparation with transportation date and time.
I will advise you to check your inbox or spam/junk folder for the Paypal confirmation email in one of these folders.
let me know as soon as you proceed to send the fee to the shipping agent.
Best Regard
Thomas

This guy sent me a fake PayPal payment to buy my motorcycle. He transferred 3500 extra for transportation. In the email it says;
