I don’t like receiving checks by mail. I’d rather have the money in cash or transferred onto my bankaccount.  Please give me your phone number so I can contact you. Please note as well that the amount of 26500 was exclusive VAT. So the total amount is 31.535,-

Finally we have concluded with our client and he have instructed  to carry on with his check,that means that payment will get to you in a bank draft of 32,200euro which is a refund payment of a cancelled order earlier made by my client. so you are required to deduct cost of  your car 26,500 euro when payment gets to you and refund balance 6,200 euro (after deducting western union charges ) to my customer via western union money transfer for him to be able to offset shipping charges down here. After payment has reached you and balance sent back to him,our agent will come for the pick up and drive to a prepaid shipper to be shipped to my customer,

Please Confirm this and provide,
NAME,
ADDRESS
AND PHONE NUMBER
for check payment to be delivered to you.  I hope you can be trusted with such amount of money .
Thanks

Dear Brian,
Thanks very much for your email and i have also contact my shipper and he told me that he will come for the pick up of the item from your place . Here is my shipping company email teddy_shippingagent@yahooco.uk you can contact him for the neccessary pick up plans and arrangement. This is how the payment will be made a client of mine in the US who is owing me some fund in
$6,500,I will instruct him to issue a check in your name and once the check clears you will deduct the cost of the item and any tax incurred and my balance will be send back to my shipper via western union money transfer for immediate shipping arrangement. The reason for this is that it takes 1-3 days for a check to clear there while it takes a longer time for a check to clear here. If this is okay with you do get back to me asap , for me to instruct my client to issue the check in your name asap. Thanks for your
understanding in anticipation and hope to read from you asap today.
Best regards,
Larry

The Honda Accord is in absolutely beautiful condition both inside and out. The interior is un marked having always had covers over the seats. It motors particularly nicely. The outside paint work is also spot on with only a few stone chips as you would expect. The car has always been shed stored since new. The car will pass any test. It has no rust.The price $3500. Let me know if you need further details.

 We do not accept cashiers cheques so therefore do not accept your offer.the classiccarfair site uses

 Subject: information needed for payment
 

 THANKS, so much for your mail i have accepted your price, meanwhile i'm expecting a refund payment, of a
 vehicle that i had earlier ordered and paid for before, but the order was later cancelled, because when the
 agent who went for the pick up of the vehicle, inspected the vehicle, he discovered that vehicle was not in any
 good condition, so i cancelled the order and i then filled in for a refund of my money. I intends use this refund to
 pay for this your vehicle that i have now ordered for. And due to company policy and book keeping, this refund
 payment which i am expecting, can only be made out in this one whole amount, that is, the full amount that i
 paid before because the company policy only allows a refund payment in one cashier check, so i has to
 instruct for the check payment to be drawn to you. So payment will get to you in a cashier check.

 I am expecting a refund payment of $47,500When payment gets to you, you are required to deduct the cost of
 your vehicle which is $40,000and return my remaining balance of $7,500 back to my agent for him to be able
 to offset shipping charges and other commisson charges.

 After all payment has reached you and balance sent back to my agent ,the agent will come for pick up, while
 you send other the reciept and other title papers to me via courier. You are required to forward your payment
 information
 (1) name, (2)address and (3) phone number for payment to be delivered to you immediately.

 Thanks.

 There are 6 photo's of the car on the website showing interior and engine etc.You would probably be best to

 The last asking price was $40,000 NZ dollars.The buyer would have to pay all shipping costs . If and when you

Hello.
I´ve been contacted by 3 Scammers of chashier checks.
I sell saxophones. They offered me to pay with a big check... And I searched in Google "ERIC MOGAN" (the name of one of them) and I got your page, luckly before being cheated. Where can I forward these SCAM Emails to contribute to prevent other people to be busted??
Thanks Mariano



Received this email about my MX5 and, being trusting, believed him.  I received the cheque a couple of days ago, went to the bank to deposit and they gave me an article in the consumer magazine with your website on it regarding scams.  I am incredibly angry as have wasted all that time on this idiot.  Have also been contacted by Todman Aka (who's name I found on your list!).

Thanks for exposing these people.  You guys are great.

Sept 4 04

Dear Sir,

I placed adds on a Dutch site to sell some of my art-collection. Then I received an e-mail from an interested buyer. The English was very bad, it was from a free e-mail account and signed by someone else than the account was listed to and well...I just felt it wasn't quite right.

So after Googling sometime I came across the scam-alert on your website. I just want to thank you very, very much for the info on your website. Because maybe, just maybe if no other buyers would have contacted me, I would have believed these scammers. And ended up without money and without my painting.

Anyway, I just wanted to thank you.

Greetings from Denise de Ridder, The Netherlands



20 May 04: 'Just to let you know we have had several SCAM emails regarding the 1969 Holden, I suspected them as scams as they all were very similar, poor English, and cashier cheque, debtors owing them money, shipping to go to West France, Bahamas, Spain, Africa etc so was very glad to read your Scam Alert. Cheers Stuart'

10 Feb 04: 'Yes I have too received several of these Emails, it wasn't for a car but a horse I was selling, I haven't sent any money, but yes they mentioned the cashiers cheque and the remaining balance to be sent to the shipping company. Michelle from Australia.'

18 Dec 03: 'Please be advised that a Dominica Smith, who was "buying" my car is a fraud. Seems very genuine, even FedEx for a seemingly genuine cheque drawn by Axa Insurance on an Irish bank. The cheque is a counterfeit, in the bank's words "an exceptionally good counterfeit". Thankfully I have not released the car until the cheque would clear, but please all be warned.

  Hello.

  Thanks for the responce and sorry for my late responce.My client said i should inform you that he would be paying $20,000 as you requested but,the payment  will be made to you by means of cheque drawn on U.K bank in the amount £25,000 which is a refund payment from previous cancelled transaction which he made  earlier.

  What you are just required to do is that immediately you received the check you cash it,deduct your own money($20,000) and send the excess money of $5,000 on the cheque to his shippers via western union money transfer(WESTEN UNION COMMISION WILL BE DEDUCT FROM MY CLIENT REFUND MONEY) then,the shippers will order their agents in your area to quickly come for
the pickup and signing of title papers on behalf of our client and on delivery of the goods,they will handover the balance of the money to the buyer.

  If you agree with this term of payment,please give me your NAME in Full,ADDRESS and PHONE # so i can give it to my clientto make out the payment to you on time.

  Thanks,waiting to hear fromyou soon,

  Kelvin........
