Contacted me saying he was interested in my item on gumtree. I asked him which one, as I currently have a few listed. He couldn't identity which item he was interested in but stated he wanted 'both' (one is a $4,000 car so that is really strange) & immediately rushed into asking for my account no. and wanted to make an immediate payment. He then demanded I supply the condition of the items and their prices. I referred him to the respective advertisements where this is clearly and explicitly displayed. This was really suspicious so I googled his name which came up as Tyler Connore or Ronald Tyler Connor as a scam.
Here's an exert of one of his emails to me.

Thanks for the mail,i appreciate your honesty with the detailed explanation with regards to your words on the item status.Happy to inform you that the fund is ready and available in my PayPal account so am ready to transfer the fund into your nominated bank account as soon as you get back to me with your account name account number and your bsb number or PayPal email address.Waiting to read from you ASAP.i will like you to disregard any kind of call or message concerning this item as I am confirming to you with this email that I am purchasing this item and its funds are ready to be transferred to your account.
