slightly more sophisticated than a Nigerian prince
Gents,
I want to share this scamming scheme with you so you are all aware when you have a car on sale.
Basically these guys are from China (in between getting ASIO building plan) they have programming bots and scan for car sales adverts. to make it a bit more authentic they actually use a 'web to sms' service and send you a text asking if your car is still for sale with a return email address. of course when you ring the number it's not on so you will more likely return their email query and here is the email trail I had.
EFFF OFF and stop your bots texting me every EFFING night.

hmd

I have just completed the payment and i expected paypal to have notified you to this effect.check your mail folders i sent $70,750 in all.i added $2,750 but $2,550 will be sent to my pickup agent headquarters in China through western union at post office,the extra $200 is to cover the western union fee. PayPal will not release the fund until you email them the western union details for verification,and also to enable my pick up agent to come for pick up and inspection.Here is the agent's details where the money will be sent.
Name Li Feng
Address:10 Jiuxianqiao Lu
City: Beijing
State: Beijing
Zip Code: 100024
Country: China.

Thanks for mailing back,am ok with the price but would be glad if you could state any issues with the present condition and service history,i work with New Zealand Oil and Gas (NZOG) and we are presently offshore in New Zealand Taranaki Basin on kupe project.We do not have access to phone at the moment,due to bad mobile network, and that's why I contacted you with internet messaging facility.Regarding the payment,i will be paying you through PayPal,please get back to me with your paypal details so i can process the payment,you can alternatively send your bsb and account number if you have no PayPal account.I have also contacted my courier who will come for pick up and deliver it to my place in Darwin after the whole fund has been cleared into your account.
Regards
