Don't know if anyones ever come across this before but slapped me motor on the bay couple of days ago.......about tweo hours after i listed had some bloke e-mail me asking if its still for sale...at his point i was a little hesitant but played the game and said yeah only been on 2 hours etc.
Next day got a really long e-mail about him saying he is buying it for his dad, its a surprise, works a a marine engineer, bulshit bullshit bullshit.
alarm bells are ringing at this point.....so lead the prick on for about 2 days now......the last 'proper' e-mail i had from him was that he has no credit card, so will pay the car price and send an additional 400 nicker, but this extra money was for me to pay his agent who is picking the car up and shipping it to nigeria blah blah blah!!!!!?????? The twat even sent his (or a) mobile number so that i could confirm its all cosher.
i'll post a couple of e-mails that he sent so you can see what i mean.........
has anyone heard of this before?
so spent all day yesterday in shitty mood because this c**t has the audacity to try it on......i even tried tracking his mobile number to find him....if he was in this country was gonna pay him a visit but i don't thinki he is.....
Rant over.......still pissed off cos im sure he'll rip someone off eventually the thieving foreign c**t
I've heard of it before but I don't see where they make the money. Surely no one comes to collect the car and the only thing they do is waste your time?
[quote="a-casual-zulu"]common as fuck on rented properties on gumtree m8 [/quote] never........well to be honest fella what really pissed me off is that i work my bollocks off for all my stuff and some foreign fuck then tries to rip me off! May sound daft a,s but i'm not that stupid and wouldn't fall for it and haven't lost anything but it really really pissed me off.......

well mate i looked into it as he was ready to pay the money into my paypal account etc, however turns out that a women at work her brother got caught out, transferred the readies into his bank, met these pair of sketchy nigerian c***s at a service station, handed the car over and somehow they managed to retract the the payment........so got the money and the motor!!
[quote="Gelse"]I always get it on gumtree when im selling.
I just reply as normal, saying it will be £3000000000 to send to Nigeria and they still say that isnt a problem!
Wankers.
Fuckoff and die.
I know mate, wanted to ring up the twat and give him a fucking earfull, trouble is it would end up winding me up more i think......and just wanted to kick his fucking head all day....couldn't stop thinking about it!!!
they have stolen credit cards linked to a pp addy then they transfer the money into unlce bob"addo"ns account you turn up and give them the goods & then report the card stolen but the pp addy is unconfirmed and the money has been transfered So they end up with it all And on that note they live in mayfair not nigeria !
[quote="waspy_1987"][quote="ryan"]Jesus. I never thought it was done like that. As in they actually meet them. Could be dangerous as fuck that. [/quote]
yeah mate, but the way i felt yestrday i would of quite happily done just that......and left the c***s in a wheelie bin
[/quote]

Thanks..
Making a bid on the auction is not a problem but that will take a long time and you will also be over charged by paypal for receiving a payment for an ebay auction. I'll suggest we conclude everything right now by me responding to the paypal money request you will send me. Please get back to me a.s.a.p. My aypal email ais diamondny@comcast.net and you can also send me your paypal email so i can make the payment asap.
I was just about to make the payment when i had this little problem with the picking up,I got an email from my agent..i taught i included that in my previous email.he said he won't come and pick up the item unless i pay him the agent commission fee first in order to be able to schedule a pick up time ,and my pick up agent head quarters is in the Nigeria and all commission payments made for pick up, from anywhere in the world is sent to their head quarters in the Nigeria and the only form of payments they accept is western union money transfer and i tried to pay online but i will need a credit card which i didn't bring along, and there is no post office(there is usually a western union section in have to ask you to help me with the pick up fees, i will include the 400 they charged to pick it up and take it my home(1st class treatment), to the payments i will send through paypal. After i have made the payments and it has been confirmed by paypal, i will need you to help me send the 400 to my pick up agent through western union money transfer, the western union money transfer can be made at a post office near to you,there is always a western union agent in most post offices or online at www.westernunion.com .I will be making the payments shortly and will email you as soon as it has been done.
Thanks for getting back to me, i am buying this my dad and i am at sea at the moment as i am a marine engineer and due to the nature of my work,phone calls making and visiting of website are restricted but i squeezed out time to check this advert and send you an email regarding it. I really want this to be a surprise for dad so i wont let him know anything about it until it gets delivered to him , i am sure he will be more than happy with this.I insisted on paypal because i don't have access to my bank account online as i don't have internet banking, but i can pay from my paypal account, as i have my bank a/c attached to it, i will need you to give me your paypal email address so i can make the payments asap and pls if you don't have paypal account you can set one up on www.paypal.com and get back to me with the email.... Hope to read back from you soonest
(obviously i have paypal ya stupid c**t m using ebay....)
strange thing was his paypal differed from his e-mail he was contacting me through....and so did the names...one was richardjordan...thge paypal linked e-mail acount was nyoma moody...
he isnt going to nick your motor, he just wants the £400, probably does it to thousands of people a month, quite lucrative if 10% off the people trust him
Yeah true mate, that said though he was going to pay me the 400 notes ontop of the car price to pay the guy. The other thing I noticed is he sent a e-mail (same as the one that started with was going to make the payment) however it said the HQ etc was Nigeria so they differed, making me think the two e-mails were 2 different people. Hope the bastard dies to he honest.....

There's a website knocking about somewhere with a whole load of these. It's basically a bloke who scams them back and posts the results. Can't remember what it was called though.
