With as much information as everyone has about this guy, including myself why can't he be legally charged with something.  He is a con man and shouldn't be allowed to keep scamming people.  He wasn't trying to buy a car from us.  He was buying an $8000 machine.  You always hope these people get what they have coming to them,  I hope he doesn't slip through the cracks!!!

This guy has now tried to scam us as well. We are situated in South Africa and he got our details from a local website where we were selling a boardroom table. He agreed to pay us the full amount via PayPal but then asked if we would mind if he deposited an additional $650 which we had to go pay to his shipping agent in China also through Western Union. He sent us a scanned copy of his US passport which you can see has been altered. According to him he resides in Hackney, North London and is a UPS Freight Supervisor. The email address and telephone numbers he used are as follows: caprewilliams@yahoo.com & +447024044806. What ultimately gave him away was the fact that he switched his Name and Surname around. In some of the correspondence he called himself Capre and in others William. This is clearly someone who has managed to obtain a legal persons passport and is using it to defraud unsuspecting individuals.

Same thing happened to me today. He wanted to buy the car I have listed for sale on Craigslist. Same exact email copy and everything. Glad I Googled this - what a pathetic loser. I hope karma catches up with this guy.

Got the same message today. Thanks for posting, everyone. Glad I checked!

I just dealt with the same guy.. email was changed to capre.will19@gmail.com with the phone number: 224-377-9639
