Paull contacted me about purchasing my Nissan Titan (sight unseen) for the full asking price and indicated he would have his agent pick it up. He offered to send me the full asking price ($9,000) via Pay Pal if I would send him a request for money.

I did so, then he wrote back with a sad story about how his agent needed $1,000 to come pick up the vehicle and I would need to wire him (via Western Union) the money and he would pay me an additional $1,000 once I had done so.

Poor English tipped me off and I searched his e-mail address on the internet and came up with a number of scam hits.
Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.
I listed a car for sale on Craigslist and I got an e-mail asking if it was still for sale. I replied that it was, and this was the e-mail I received from the guy (he had never even seen the car):
"Sorry for the late response...I am ok with the asking price.due to the nature of my job and location,i will not be able to come for inspection because i work long hours everyday,i have gone through your advertisement and i am satisfied with it.i will be paying you via the fastest and secure way to pay online(PayPal).
I have a private courier agent that will come for the pick up after the payment have been made.You can now send me your PayPal email so i can pay in right away and also include your address in your reply.If you don't have a paypal account, you can easily set up one.log on to http://www.paypal.com/ and sign up. its very easy.
Send the paypal money request to boone.paull@gmail.com
Hope to hear from you soon..
Thanks"

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
