i saw the advert of your Main Canopies i am hihgly interested in buying it and i will like you to get back to me with the follwing Main Canopies :
1)How long have you owned it?
2)Is there any damages on it?
3)Any available photo?
4)The last price of it?
5)Means of payment will be by Money Order or ceritified check
DO NOT do business with anyone who offers to send you payment for a higher amount than your selling price with the understanding that you'll send back the balance.
Be suspicious of anyone claiming to be acting on behalf of a "client" or another "customer".
Be suspicious of anyone claiming to be from Nigeria or West Africa
If you agree to accept a check payment, then do not send anything, gear or "change" before the check cleared. And be careful, if you manage to clear a fraudulent check then you may be liable for the damages if the bank finds out later. Make sure your bank authenticates the check.
If it sounds to good to be true, then it probably is.
