Dear Corey

Thanks for your response and its. Must let you know that its nice speaking the truth which is the what every transaction needs.

I wont be seeing cos am not close to you. but my agent would take care of that.Therefore i shall be posting to you a cashier's check or money order for the payment of the goods in this transaction covering the cost of the goods and travell allowancies including hotel an feeding for my agent. On the receival of payment, you shall help me by sending the balance after deducting the real cost of your goods to my agent for conclusion of the remaining part of the transaction via western union money transfer while you also deduct the cost of sending the funds from western union money transfer. so that he can collect the goods an send to me, thats why your address is necessary.

Here is how the scam goes.

Car sales scam on the web- beware!

Quite a few victims have fallen prey to this scam.It is particularly
rampant on EBAY Motors

~ This new scam has surfaced on the web recently involving the sale or
purchase of vehicles over the Internet. Please excercise EXTREME
caution in Internet transactiona, particularly when selling vehicles.
Here is how the scam works:

Scammer poses as a buyer interested in a car (or boat, plane, whatever)
you have for sale over the web;

Scammer then sends a pre-authorized note or chaeque (certified) that is
made out for several thousand dollars more than the purchase price;

Scammer then requests that you cash the cheque, keep the portion of the
money that is used to buy the car ( or boat, or whatever high ticket
item) and send the cash on to a third party via money wire, Western
Union, etc. They will likely tell you it is to cover the shipping or
"transfer" costs and will be handled by the thrid party. It will
probably be in a foreign country;

You know where this is going, right? The certified check they sent you
inevitably turns out to be bogus (counterfeit), and you are of course
in the rather awkward position of being out the amount of money that
you sent to the third party, and the latest victim of the scam.
Here is an email from a near-victim:

Hello there !

I'm the one with the XXXXXX on you're site !!

Someone (from a diff. site) has been emailing me about the car ...said
the best he can do is offer $12,000 BUT will send me a cheque for
$24,700 US from a US bank and could I send the diff. to the UK via
Western Union to handle shipping and then they will pick up the car
anyway I would like you to know his so-called name and addy for future
ref. ............

Everyone should be aware of this scam. Never release your vehicle until you know that you know it's paid for and never give your bank account information to anyone for funds transfer.

As always, please use common sense.
