Kate Walker
Complaint 132764 Details

I was first contacted by an individual using the email address of '[email protected]'. This individual then started using the email address of '[email protected]' in later communications. The claim was to purchase a vehicle at full price but that she was leaving for a contract on a ship and would not be able to speak with me or see the vehicle. She was going to arrange a mover to pickup the vehicle and pay me through PAYPAL. Later the claim was the mover needed to be paid first with a "Money Gram" of $950. Once this mover was paid then the rest of the money would be released by PAYPAL. Now the interesting part was the following email:

"I have made the payment and the funds has been deducted from my account. I have just Email PayPal funds verifier Accounting Department now to know what's going on about your funds, they let me know that your money is intact with them and ready to be released to your account once you send the shipping fee out.. So i want you to get the shipping fee out through Money Gram outlet nearest to you and get back to PayPal funds verifier section with the Reference Number, Sender's Name or with the Money Gram Scanned Receipt for verification and confirmation and they shall immediately credit your money to your PayPal account and complete the sales."

When I contacted PAYPAL there were no such funds associated with my account and they do not verify any payment before transferring funds. Beware of this unscrupulous individual and do not waste your time replying to anyone claiming to be "Kate Walker".
