Was looking on a local site for a used car. Found a reasonable one and should have stopped when I thought no phone number strange but replied to the supplied Email address provided. The seller claimed he was a Sgt stationed in Fort Irwin Cal and was soon to be transfered and needed to sell the car.
A legitimate looking "Google Wallet" page was given with the manner of payment.
Well the sinus infection meds get me a little loopy at times and should have stopped there and investigated more but went ahead and sent the money.
No replies from the seller after that , so I guess the Nigerian Prince finally got me.
Just a FYI in case it helps someone ....
Sellers supposed name --- Morgan Whittle
Sellers EMAIL address use -- [email protected]
MONEYGRAM (I know , big red flag) info for the transaction
First Name: Jacob
Last Name: Burkinshaw
Address: 55 Exchange Blvd
City: Rochester
