Hi there, Thank you for getting back to me.Can you assure me that the merchandise is in good state and that i will not be disappointed with it.I'm ready to pay your asking price and to be honest, i wanted to buy this for my Dad and he is a mechanic, but the issue is I'm an Oceanographer and i do have a contract to go for which starts tomorrow and am leaving any moment from now. The contract is strictly no call due to the lack of reception on the sea area. But I'm able to access email anytime as we will make use of laptop so my only quickest payment option is PayPal as i can send money via PayPal anytime.Since I'm requesting this transaction to be done via PayPal, i will be responsible for all the pay pal fee/charges on this transaction and if you don't have an account with paypal,it s pretty easy, safe and secured to open one. Just log on to www.paypal.com. I hope we can make the purchase as fast as possible? I have a mover that will come for it once payment clears and they will be handling the title for me. So i look forward to hear from you. Your PayPal e-Mail Address :
Full name:
Firm Price:
Zip code for pickup
Many Thanks

Needless to say, I believed this was a scam, so I ended it by telling this person that my husband was a cop and we don't use PayPal. Watch out for this scammer.

  • I just put my Pathfinder on Craigslist and got the same e-mail (word for word) from this person. I probed with more questions and the replies just got sketchier. I researched the name and found your post. Thanks!

  • I was just contacted by Sydney Doogue about a vehicle I listed on Craigslist. He is using [email protected] and [email protected]. His first question was strange as most people wouldn't want to know the original owner's name and most vehicle owners wouldn't know. The way he worded his questions makes me believe that English is not his first language. He asked the following:

    Hi,
    Is the item still up for sale??Get back to me soon with
    1.Who is the first owner?
