He says he has sent payment thru paypal and all you need to do is send the pick up agent\'s fee thru any western union store or outlet\'s near you and email the money transfer control number to paypal for confirmation and the money will be credited into your account and it will go straight into your bank account.

You will receive notification from paypal that they have been notified by him to schedule the release of payment. However, he has the money on hold and it has not been deposited into your paypal account. As soon as you send him the agents fee (mine was $800) he will release your payment into your account.

We asked him to please withdraw his pick up agent fee from the paypal account and schedule pick up arrangements on his own. When money has been released into our account, then we will talk about pick up arrangements. Did not hear from him again for a few days until he sent a message saying, \"Please get back to me as I have a lot to discuss with you\"

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.
