Classified Ads Scam
Paypal (paypal.com) |  +2 Caravan sales The scam was the same as below 1 as he said he worked on the New Zealand Taranaki basin Kapo project and wanted to buy our caravan unseen by paypal and wanted me to pay the courier who had a UK office.
He asked the same questions
Anthony ,i have just made the payments now and i also requested that paypal should send a payment notification message to your inbox here and i expect paypal to have emailed by now,please check your spam/junk folder as I sometimes get paypal notification there,I sent $55,649aud in all, paypal said they would be holding the funds and it won\'t be credited into your account because of the excess payments of $1,650aud i added meant for pick up and delivery,they said they have emailed you to this effect, you will need to send the $1,550aud to the freighting company headquarters via western union money transfer,so that paypal can credit the $55,649aud into your account as soon as you have emailed the western union details to them, i added extra $100aud to cover the western union charges which shouldnt be more that $60-80aud but just to be sure i added $100aud, Here is the pick up agent info needed to get the money sent through western union money transfer:
Lianne Finney,
74 Holloway Road,
Highbury & Islington,
PO31 7DA,
United Kingdom.
