I was selling a used car recently when i received a tradingpost message from a user asking me if the car was still available.
I replied to his seemingly legitimate gmail account and he replied asking relevant questions stating he was out of the country and was buying the car for a friend. 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.
