He stated he would buy the car through paypal, and would send the payment before an "agent" arrived to pick it up. So it all seemed fairly real until i received a fake paypal email, and then another email stating his payment would not be allowed through by paypal unless i directly pay his agent $800. At this point clearly i knew it was a scam, and i continued to post it on the relevant forums etc.Sat, 25 Jul 2009 14:30:48 GMTmitchellcaines
