Paypal Scam [email protected]

Just to add ... got the same email from the scammer. I knew straight away from the language that it was a scam email. See below his emails 1 and 2 respectively.

1. Hope this car is still available and what is the asking price and the recent condition of the car. get back to me at ( matthewjamesbat @ gmail . com ). Thanks

2. Thanks for your swift response, please do consider me as the buyer i
am okay with the price and condition of the car, as am buying the car
for my Daughter for her birthday present which is coming up next week,
i am currently at sea at the moment as a United Kingdom Royal Navy and
due to the nature of my work, phone calls making and visiting of
website are restricted but i squeezed out time to check this advert
and send you an email regarding it. I really want the car to be a
surprise package for my Daughter so I won't let her know anything
about the car until it gets delivered to her, I am sure she will be
more than happy with the car. I insisted on PayPal as my mode of
payment because I don't have access to my bank account online and
also, I don't have Internet banking, but I can pay from my PayPal
account. I have my bank account attached to my PayPal account, get
back to me with your PayPal Email to my Email address (
matthewjamesbat @ gmail. com ) or send me
Paypal Payment request to ( matthewjamesbat @ gmail. com ). So that I
can make the payment asap for the car. Nevertheless, if you don't have
a PayPal account yet, it is very easy to set up, go to ww w. paypal.
com and get it set up, after you have set it up I will only need the
e-mail address you used for the registration with PayPal so as to put
the money through. I have a pick up agent that will come and pick the
car up after I have made the payments for the car. Thanks
