Title: Shall i sell
Post by: billy192 on July 05, 2015, 08:29:37 AM: I have just received this mail re selling my Kawasaki S3 400. you have to laugh ;D ;D ;D ;D
mmmm let me see

Ok my friend,

There is know problem since you sale Kawasaki S3 5000 pounds I am in Germany which flying to Ivory Coast. In very shoot time period but i will make sure the payment is sent before I make my movement.

Which the shipping will round to UK to my son address because he will be the one in charge of Kawasaki S3.

Now provide me your contact address informations to receive the cheque from me and send the rest balance once you clear it into your bank account to my son William in UK to enable him come around with my shipping company for pick up.
Let me have your full correct contact to receive parcel.

Best Regard.
Grey.

I agreed and he sent the cheque, told him it was lost in the post so he sent another same reply so he sent another.
I must have used half his dodgy cheques up before he stopped sending them ;D

You have to be very carefull with that scam as the cheque believe it or not WILL clear in your account so you think you have the funds.
It then gets stopped when the cheque is presented to the senders account.
What they tried with me was sending more than was requested and getting you to wire the balance back to them ;D ;D ;D
It is the wired funds they are after.
