Hi All,
For those who are currently advertising something in the trader section, be aware of the following scam email from "Buyer"
Attached below is email I received:
From : todd hawmann
Dear seller,
I 'm interested in purchasing your advertised car and i will like to know the price if is okay by me.if I can pay with a cheque drawn in your location. If this is okay with you do get back to me immediately for me to arrange the payment. Concerning the shippment, my shipper will come and pick it up from your location as soon as we seal this transaction. Do get back to me immediately with your Full Name, Contact Address and
Phone Number for me to instruct my client to make the payment ASAP. Hope to hear from you soon.
Best regards,
todd
Please be aware that this is a scam to try to get you to accept a cheque as payment, and will bounce about 2 weeks later.
Thanks
TonyG
