Just got an sms that the person is interested to buy my car - he is not reachable by phone but likes to have my paypal information to get the deal done. Got suspicious, because 15 minutes before this guy, another sms came also to buy the car also by paypal. With this phone number, I found notes of a lot of other people that got the same sms. Would not do any deals. Cant be serious.!

--------I got the same thing. I had to block him. He sent this e-mail.--------------

Hello,

I am Sgt John Cox currently deployed to a remote area until October 20. It is strictly no calls here otherwise I would have called you to seal the deal. I have read through your ad and from what I have seen,it is priced favorably compared to others so I want you to consider it sold to me ''AS IS'' for the asking price but you have to assure me it is as described.

I am comfortable paying you via Paypal to complete this transaction because of their security when it comes to online transactions. Let me have your Paypal details ( Full name,Paypal Email,phone #) so that I can initiate the payment. If you don't have a Paypal account kindly set one up because it is absolutely free.

Furthermore, I will hire shipper that will come for the pickup,inspection to make sure it conform to your description and also do the necessary paperwork on my behalf as soon as we are done with the payment part of the transaction.

Thanks

Got email and texts from John Cox wanting to purchase horse trailer, pay through PayPal but money gram the shipping... Scam!!
