Soon as I posted my car for sale on kijiji I got 3 text messages asking to send more details via email, all of them worked over seas etc, I cant believe the amount of emails i got like this. And this was for a vehicle with 210,000 km. I asked them for ID and where they were from and all I got back was something like this:

"I appreciate your prompt response, I'm Benton Tucker presently
offshore in the Gurf of Mexico for Transocean on a new Semi
Submersible as a Storekeeper. We work 14 on, 14 off. I am buying It
ASAP for my cousin as a surprise and he doesn't know about it. I wont
be available by myself for inspection due to the nature of my work and
present location. I will like you to email me with some close up shots
of it and will arrange for it to be picked up by a pick up agent who
will be coming for the inspection and pick up at your place once the
payment clears, I will also be paying you through Paypal which i
believe is safe and secured for both of us and I will also be
responsible for the charges. All I need from you now is to get back to
me with your Paypal email and name or send me Paypal invoice so that I
can send your payment ASAP. What is your final asking price?
Just want to be sure about the sale before i proceed and If you need
to reach me, send me an email as i Squeeze time every four-hours to
check correspondence and respond at the same time.
Thanks
Okay. I would have love to talk to you on phone and explain more better but Due to the nature of my job,making phone calls and visiting of website are restricted but i took permission from our IT Admin to check this advert and sent you Text regarding this and instructing you to email so I am not allowed to get out of the unit or give calls whenever I want. I am an honorable person and you will receive your full money cash in hand before my mover comes for pick up at your place. And if you dont have a paypal account, It's pretty easy to set up a PayPal account at http://www.paypal.com . it's just a few minutes away from signing up. it's safe and secure for both Parties. You are on a secured transaction with paypal. As soon as you open an account, get back to me with the name and email that you linked with your paypal account and I will have your money wired asap.
