been trying to sell my car now for a few weeks and got an email from this guy asking for some details about the car, so i replied and he sent this back. it looks and sounds really dodgy but i cant work out what scam he is trying to pull. what do you guys think:
Hello,
Thanks for the response concerning the sale of the lexus ,i found the advert on Auto trader,go get the advert off the web and consider it sold, You dont have to bother about the pick up but presently i am schedulled to leave for holland on a business engagement and this will last me five working days but i believe my trip does not stop this transaction as i will be informing my business associate in the state to make out a certified cashier cheque of £ 16,500 to your care as soon as you receive the payment you will deduct your cost price and additional £100 then you will transfer the balance via western union money transfer to the shipping company that will handle the pick up of ride from your location down to my store,the reason being that i have other consignment which they will pick up for me,they will as well responsible for the signing of all titles relating to this transaction and the pick up..
Kindly provide me with your full name valid phone# and complete contact information for the cheque delivery if my mode of payment is considered and if i can trust you with my fund.
I look forward to doing business with you.
Regards............Mark
