Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.

In response to an advert in Carsguide, I received an initial request via SMS aksing if the car was still available. Following this the following email trail highlighted the scam which was to seek pre-payment for freight, insurance etc to delievre the car )sight unseen) to Darwin.
"Thanks for the reply and so sorry that i couldn't call you due to the nature of my work,I work with AWE New Zealand Pty Ltd and we are presently on rig at the moment,on the west aquarius submersible to be precise.I would have loved to call you directly but due to the nature of my work we do not have access to phone at the moment,its 20days off and 10days on,which is why I contacted you with internet messaging facility and where is it located at the moment.
I am buying this for my first son who just graduated ontop of his class at Charles Darwin University in NT ,He studied Building Design & Architecture. I want it to be the perfect graduation gift and a surprise package for him ,Does it have any history I should be aware of? and why are you selling if you don't mind my asking.I am already in talks with freighters that will handle the pickup and delivery to my son.I will really appreciate if you can email more info.
As regards the payment, I can pay you through direct bank deposit,using paypal instant bank wire transfer service, I will need your bank details.If you are not comfortable with that, you can set up a paypal account proper and I will make the payment through paypal, this way, all I will need is your paypal email address.
Kind Regards, David."
In reposne confirming the car was still avilable & price was fixed:
"Thanks for the detailed explanation and I really appreciate your honesty as that is what i really need most as wont be able to come for inspection as am at work ,just want to buy the it as a surprise package for my son to show my appreciation in my absentia and i really believe he will really enjoy it.I would have love to ask for inspection but am making it a %100 surprise package for him and i dont want him to know about it until it delivered.

Please advise me of the details so i can make the transfer ASAP and after have sorted out with the payment i have a private courier that will come for the pick up and make a personal delivery for my son after the payment clears into your account."
Payment details were confirmed and in reposnse:
"Thanks for the understanding ,Please I have just made the payments now and i expected paypal to have emailed by now,please check your spam/junk folder as I sometimes get paypal notification there, I sent the full amount in all, paypal said they would be holding the funds and it won't be credited into your account because of the excess payments i added meant for pick up and delivery,they said they have emailed you to this effect, you will need to send the balance to cover freight to the freighting company headquarters via western union money transfer,so that paypal can credit the the full amount into your account as soon as you have emailed the western union details to them, i added extra to cover the western union charges which shouldn't be more that but just to be sure i added. Here is the pick up agent info needed to get the money sent through western union money transfer:

Transit Times We provide transit times as a guide only. There are a lot of factors affecting the transit time. Weather and traffic conditions the most obvious ones. Most times, we are pretty accurate, but, sometimes, well, cars just arrive a bit later then expected, sometimes a bit earlier too. We keep you posted though and you can check yourself by logging into your account and checking the status of your car move. To be sure, just do not plan meetings, holidays or trips around the provided transit times. Personal Items You cannot leave any personal items in the car. Don't forget to empty the boot also! Most carriers do not allow the presence of any personal items in the car. If items are found in the car upon pick-up or drop off at a depot, the car will be rejected for transport. Depot Hours Depots are open Monday to Friday 09:00am to 04:00pm.
