WARNING: Looks to be a fraudster threat

[akneethling]

The fact that you didn't just delete that email worries me

LOL.......... It is a concern yes. These guys are getting creative...... Really creative

[kosmonooit]

yes one glance at that and I can assure you its a stinking pile of p00h

 

Also, you don't need a Paypal account to get paid by Paypal

[jatho]

Here's the same one my mate got yesterday trying to sell his bike on thehub:

 

 

 

Hello,

 

Thanks for the information. I am at sea at the moment because I work as a

Marine Engineer but I still have my family house in South Africa where I

lived for many years before relocating to the United States of America to

join my husband, and accordingly, I will be pleased to make the payment in

the United States dollars equivalent which is easily convertible to South

African Rands.

 

 

I need four and will however be paying you by PayPal and insist on this payment medium

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 because my bank

account is fully linked and attached to it, and besides, the payment system

is perfectly secured for both of us. I will therefore need you to give me

your PayPal email address and your acceptable exchange rate of South African

Rands to United States Dollars so that I can make the payment as soon as

possible. In case you don’t have PayPal account, you can easily set one up

within a minute at any branch of First National Bank in South Africa or go

to www.PayPal.com . Should you also wish to have

more information about PayPal which is now widely used for payments in South

Africa, the First National Bank in South Africa would be glad to help, you

could also obtain first hand information from FNB website on thins link

https://www.fnb.co.za/news/archive/2010/20100325paypal.html Please don’t

worry about the PayPal charges because it is my responsibility to add it to

your price so that you can have your complete money. I need only your PayPal

email address to make the payment, and nothing else.

 

There is already a shipping agent for the bike to ship it to our family

house in South Africa after you have satisfactorily received your payment.

The shipping fee will however will be included in my payment to you

according to PayPal requirements and it will be their ultimate

responsibility to ensure the successful shipment of the bike .

 

 

Please let me know any other relevant conditions about the bike and the

total amount of your price in United States Dollars equivalent. The bike

is a surprise birthday gift for my late uncles sons forthcoming birthday during

which every members of the family will be celebrating with him. Therefore, I

will be pleased to make your payment immediately so that you can thereafter

release the car to the shipping agent as soon as you have your money in your

bank account through PayPal.

 

 

I will be pleased if you could still send me some few more pictures of the

bike for my personal viewing.

 

 

Thanks a lot.

She forgot to change the word car to bike in the last paragraph - what a ponse!

 

And take note, at the start of the email it says she will take 4 and in the last paragraph it says THE car

 

Hence my comment about the IQ of 70

[kosmonooit]

Pretty sure you do...

 

Okay yea, just checked again and seems so now but there was a time ... way back when.

[Guest Omega Man]

Come on people. It's for a present. WTF is wrong with all of you?

[Tankman]

As dit eers met so n lang k@k storie begin, raak die k@k net meer en die storie langer!

 

Oh and she does not have internet banking ... But surfing all kinds of websites looking for people dumber than her does not seem to be a problem!?

[specialized7]

Did you notice the " still send me some few more pictures " .... this certainly is conclusive evidence that this is in fact bra Julias or an Agent who wants to purchase some few cars and have them registered on their trusts account.

 

Bloody agents.... just release the car/bike/whatever to them, where is the trust?

SCAM!!!

 

Ask for their PayPal details, and report THEM to PayPal.

 

These dude's take PayPal fraud seriously!!!

They will try and find them and stop the rubbish.
