Complaint 145555 Details

i got a reply email to my craigslist post 2 days ago asking if my car was still for sale. my response was, "yes, do you have any questions?"
the presumed buyer responded with the following email:

"Thanks for your response, I am quite okay with your price,I need you
to understand that i am willing and ready to purchase it right
away,put it off the AD site,consider me as your favorite buyer,and
Please note that i have a shipper/mover who handles my shipping
arrangement anywhere in the world,she would be coming for the
pickup,after you have received payment,which would be through
PayPal,If this is acceptable,advice soon as i am a Sailor and i am
buying this for my son as a surprise gift,So kindly get back to me
with the present condition of it and also some pictures of it,I can
only pay through PayPal at the moment as i do not have access to my
bank account online,but i have it attached to my PayPal account,and
this is why i insisted on using PayPal to pay,all i will need is your
pay pal email address to make the payments and some pictures if you do
not have a PayPal account yet,its pretty easy to set one up at
www.paypal.com,i will be expecting your email.I have a pick up agent
that will come for the pick up after payments has been sorted."

in response, i told her i would keep her as a serious buyer and told her to call me so i could give her some information about the car, and she responded that she couldn't make or recieve calls considering her job but asked for my paypal email.

im sure i ended the interest in my sale, because i refused to accept paypal as a form of payment, just to be safe.. no response back yet.
