WANT TO BUY Beware of fraud

[redington]

I know of two cases of recieving offer to sell neede parts by an e-mail from England. The seller wants payment by Western Union to a British address. He states he cannot send pictures due to a computer problem and his PayPal account is not working. I had a friend in England try to contact him to drive over and pay in cash and pick up the parts. Seems he was too busy to see my friend and insisted that I should wire by Western Union. Also his phone didn't answer. I am wondering if there are any more contacts since he seems to be working this forum.

I am only putting this out since this does seem like it kinda smells. "When it is too good to be true, it usually is!"

Just be awhere. There is a long shot that he is real but I have my doubts.

Well it seems with all the offers from England that the home boys from Nigeria Scams have hopped in their Toyota pick up trucks with machine guns and chrome rims and moved to England to set up shop.

Good advice...as always, if something seems fishy, it probably is a scam! You have to beware when buying and selling on the internet.
