hi,
amv interested in your advert which i came across through aquarist classifieds ads,pls confirm to me by making a reply if it\'still available.
doyou mind telling me your last asking price with the present conditions and the payment arragments?
hoping to hear from you.
cheers
Tim
i didnt realise at first but then he emailed me back for more information
hi eve,
imust tellyou that you are reallya very funny person considering the ways at which you express yourself.
anyway many thank with your response and i will like to know how much you are intending the sell the whole 5 available to me.
actually we would have loved to come over and have a look before the purchase,but due to the distance in between and more to the fact that we have a very tight schedule,makes it more difficult to decide on that,but you have nothing to worry about since ifam fine with your asking price .
however,i will like to proceed with the payment and the pickup arrangments as quick as possible.in order to expedite the arrangments,i wish to bring to your notice that the payment will be available to you through cheque which means that in your replyi will be expecting to received from you,the payments informations or details as follows.
the name on the cheque,
the address inclusive with a contact mobile number.
as soon as i receive confirmation from you that the cheque is cleared i will contact a reputable shipping company that is presently helping me with some pickup to locate you for the shipping,which means you need not to bother concerning the pickup.
i will be looking forward to hearfrom you.
cheers
tim
so is this standard procedure for buyers to ask for so many details?? he hasnt responded so i guess that confirms stuff. |

Seen this type of scam on other selling sites. To summarise the scam you could end up out of pocket to the tune of the £2000 cheque that they offer. Something to do with them confusing banking details but quite complex |
