payment i made through PayPal, you can check your (inbox,spam & junk) for

decided to add the amount of £300 which i paid through paypal, So
please i will like you to help me wire the sum of £250 to my agent via
western union so he can be able to come for the pick up and also
paypal said they won't release the funds until they get the western
union information from you due to the fact that i emailed them about
the excess payment i made.i will need you to send the £250 to my pick
up agent Headquarters where they normally confirm any commission
payment to via western union money transfer(this can be done from the
post office, as they usually have a western union agent there), i
added extra £50 to cover the western union charges which shouldn't be
more than £10-35 but just to be sure i added £50, Here is my pick up
agent Headquarter info needed to get the money sent through western
union money transfer:

Tiffany Matthews,
143 Laurel Ln,
Florence,
South Carolina
29506.
United State.

I will need the details of the transfer once you have sent fund so i
can forward to paypal . . .
1.The MTCN number that is the 10 digits number on the Western Union receipt
2.Sender's name and address used in sending the money
3.Actual amount sent.

that wot the nob sent me lol fake as

I have sent this Murray guy an invoice for £2900. What do I do!! HELP

An invoice? If he puts any money in paypal etc for you, steal it from him and do us all a favor ;)

He got my paypal email address off me, is that anything to worry about?

same here had a txt message from ghislainekl, no number just the name like i had saved it in my phone memory. Asked me to email price of car to france.williams115@LIVE.com. I did send an email then
thought it was weird so googled and got to this site. Just emailed them back to say u r a scam do not
contact again!!! Hope they cant hack my email account?

I've had exact same message today on a mobile to send details of best price on a car I was selling on eBay, not actually selling a car but I mailed France.williams115@live.com & got reply of a suprise gift for his son & with being a marine engineer could only pay via PayPal

I have just had this person contact me with exactly the same story about being a marine engineer, I gave him my paypal email address but nothing more so he can't get into my account can he? I'm glad I read this now!

Afraid I've fallen for this scam this last week. Had all the other details the same as others with authentic looking E Mails from Paypal. Didn't check before sending money by Western Union to Tiffany Matthews.
Then was asked for more money and realised I'd been done over.
Names being used on txts and E mails are;
ghislainekl
france.williams115@live.com
aaronspeed26@yahoo.com
rita1952.adrienne@gmail.com
E-Bay name of  'bonnie14wendy'

Be warned

I've just had the same email off him last night saying he wants to buy my car for his son I sent an email back saying [***] you!!!

same here, got my car on ebay, want it for son surprise...and away at sea lalalala france.williams115@live.com ....he must think we are stupid . glad i found this sight as was tempted lol thanks all.

Hi I've just had the same thing happen to me selling a car through EBay. Exactly the same story, marine engineer working away at sea, wanting to buy car for his son and that an agent would pick up the car on transfer of payment.

Some additonal information - he is now using the following email address:  france.williams115@LIVE.com and he initially text me with the name that came up as 'av8rldy' but no mobile number which I thought was odd?

Do not deal with this guy - just report asap and do not pass on any details to him. And remember, if something sounds too good to be true, it is!!!!

Thanks

I just Googled "av8rldy" and found this page. I posted my car up for sale on eBay about 2 hours ago. I just got this text message from "av8rldy" saying:

"I'm interested in your vehicle for sale.What is your last asking price & its present condition? Kindly get back to me at my email grinjohn555@gmail.com"

I've Googled this email address and nothing has come up so I assume I'm one of the first to report that particular email address. Obviously, I won't reply knowing all this.

I've also had contact from grinjohn555@gmail.com with a text message saying

"I'm interested in your vehicle for sal. What is your last asking price & its present condition? Kindly get back to me at my email grinjohn555@gmail.com "

I've ignored and not heard anymore since.

I have had the same old crap from this grinjohn555@gmail.com. I just emailed him back saying that I will only accept cash on collection, so he can pay his agent through paypal and they can pay the cash.
Not expecting to hear any more from him.
I would just like to THANK every one for the information I have recieved from this site.
Take care all.
