Mikel Morgan! [email protected]

so i am selling a bass amp, i'm a jazz musician and the amp is 2 big for the car. so what i did was put it up on a resellers site http://www . 4 salearuba.com (i live in te caribbean)

so i got an email from this guy Mikel Morgan ([email protected])

and he was willing to buy the amp, pay for everything etc etc. so i got a bit fishy. and e was already reported here on this site once before. seriously what is up!? i had a pay pall account and then he said he need my information. so i gave fake info and a old pay pall account that has nothing on it. point is


BE WARE OF THIS GUY! he's up to no good AGGAIN!

now i am from the caribbean but i don't know where to report him.

HELP!

the person is using [email protected] now.

Offered to buy my vehicle that was posted on trinicarsforsale.com and insisted that he can only pay via paypal

He may send you a fake PayPal notice that says, he paid, but you can't get the money until after you ship the item. PayPal doesn't hold money until you ship. Or perhaps, the fake PayPal message will say, you must send some money by Western Union before his money is released to you.

Police report would be useful if you knew the real name and address of a scammer, but you have no way to find that information. Just don't be tricked and go on with your life.

Any time I list anything online for sale, my mailbox immediately fills with scam offers. Just delete them.

I think I found this guy over at ripoffreport.com

I also sent a copy of the e-mail to [email protected] and received back the following reply:

Hello *******,
Thanks for forwarding that suspicious-looking email. You're right - it
was a phishing attempt, and we're working on stopping the fraud. By
reporting the problem, you've made a difference!
Identity thieves try to trick you into revealing your password or other
personal information through phishing emails and fake websites. To learn
more about online safety, click "Security Center" on any PayPal webpage.
Every email counts. When you forward suspicious-looking emails to

theft.
Your account security is very important to us, so we appreciate your
extra effort.

Welcome to Scamwarners! The email from Dole Dota was written by a West African (which is expected). The PayPal email was also written by a West African (which is not normal). Please post the complete header of the fake PayPal email, in case anyone looks for the address it appears to be sent from or the address it really was sent from.

As requested I have shown below the complete internet header for the FAKE PAYPAL MESSAGE. I hope that this helps others to avoid this scumbag. I have deleted references to my e-mail address and replaced them with the word "me".
I see that he also uses the e-mail address: [email protected]
