Sounds like a scam

[Pumpster]

Thanks for your mail,I have spoken to my client and he
has instructed me to inform you that payment will get
to you in a cashier check of $2,400 which is a refund
payment of a cancelled order earlier made by my
client.so you are required to deduct cost of the 7
piece empire barrel kit i.e $100 when payment gets to
you and refund balance $2,300 to my Agent via western
union money transfer for him to be able to offset
shipping charges. Since I reside in Fulham,London.
After payment has reached you and balance sent back to
him,our agent will come and pick up title and take it
to a prepaid shipper to be shipped to my
customer,while title papers and other necessary
documents will be sent to you via fedex courier to my
customer. My client could send the check to you
through fedex courier immediately. Please forward your
full name! s, address and phone number

Thanks
Ken



That is the email that spydersplatter got when trying to sell his barrel set

Never heard of title papers for a barrel set.
This scam has come up a lot recently, my neighbors had about 7 of these when they posted up a bike for sale.
I consider it right up there with the letters form the guy in africa trying to reclaim the throne of his country.

I got an email from a guy in Poland when I was trying to sell my cocker. He wanted to send me 4500 dollars and have me transfer the rest of the money back to him. He also wanted me to keep and extra 100 for trouble, and not to worry bout shipping!!!

LOL, thats why i buy from my local store or Oline stores that i know, never bought used, or from a Person, and never will.

[warpedx]

I'll buy used, but I'll do reverse phone number lookups, check addresses, and talk with them on the phone before I trade. haven't gotten screwed yet, I hope to keep it that way.
