Am from Vancouver, and i will love to know how much you are actually giving it out for. Its so cheap for that price but i will love to know whats your best offer for it and more details about it.. I will love to know what your form of payment will be? so i can make the funds available for you. I hope to hear from you soon. jessy Remember: 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.This username has been disabled. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darthryan 0 #2 August 6, 2010 can you tell me what the nature of the scam was? I also received a relpy from this buyer for one of my posted items Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
monkycndo 0 #3 August 6, 2010 They want to send you money over and above asking price with you sending the extra back to them. The check they send you is fake, but by the time you cash it and the bank determines it's phoney, you are out the money you sent them. They normally ask for Western Union so they can collect it anywhere. The text listed by the OP is almost a template used by many scammers. If you want to have some fun and waste their time, set up a new gmail account and use it to string them along for as long as possible. The time you waste of theirs might save someone else from getting burned. Take a quick read of the sticky at the top of this forum. Here is a site that explains some other scams. http://www.419eater.com/50 donations so far. Give it a try.
