The word ADVERT is a dead giveaway. Its a scam out of the UK. I get that on horses I have for sale and have for years. I tell them SURE send your 'agent' to pick 'it' up. Then I ask what cuts of meat to they prefer. Another is asking them about trades for their sisters,daughters or mothers. Pictures first please.

I am a sailor and I find it odd, because if I was going to buy a car which was out of state.. I'd get off the ship, take the flight to the closest airport near the seller instead of my usual Orlando destination, check out the car, go to the bank and then drive it home.

I've been screwing with these scams for years. Been advertising horses for years. Africans also with banks holding millions of dollars for them and their government fixing to steal their money. I either delete or screw with them until they can't take it anymore. Don't know how they'd find out more info then e/mail address which they already have.

You are best either getting the police involved (they have specialists that deal with this), or leave it alone, because you risk them finding out more info about you that you want them to know. This is the dark alley of the internet world.........

I have two of these right now for my Harley I'm selling and I'm having a little fun with them. I told one of them that I don't do PayPal because there are a lot of crooked people out there but his agent can bring me cash when he picks up my brand new car. He emailed me back saying he doesn't have that much cash he can only do PayPal he did not even mention that I said brand new car and not Harley in my email. So I wrote back that he must not really want my boat. The other one I asked him to send me a cashiers check for $500.00 as a goodwill gesture then he can PayPal me the rest when his agent get here to pick it up. I don't think they even want to buy anything they are trying to get an email address to an active PayPal account so they can drain your account.

It is possible to insert fake records in there, so anything before "sane" servers might be faked.

Cash or Certified Bank Check is the only way to go and conduct the title transfer and payment in your bank where they can accept the payment and deposit in your account. Protect yourself. It is business.
