Thanks for the mail, I am okay with the price of the Imperials So i will be paying you via a check.I will contact my Business Associates to send you the payment of $7,000 .Once you recieve the Payment from my Business Associates,All what you have to do is deduct your selling price from thefunds and then send the remaining funds to a Shipping company i contact that will take charge of the shipping. You are not to worry about Shipping,I have a reputable Shipping Company that i have been using for long now, so i am sure they will Ship the Item right to the destination i want it shipped. Also they have got a lot in Europe to ship for me.The remaining excess funds should be sent to the Shipping Company via Western Union Money Transfer and the charges to get Funds transfered to them should be deduct from the funds you are sending to them Shipping Company. so you are to deduct your selling price which is $2,000 from the cheque for you to know that i am serious in buying the Imperials kindly get back to me with the following details.

what happens if i take the 7 grand, keep the car and intimidate the business assistant?

[mclaggan123]

its a common scam used to get your personal bank account number. being in the military i have had many briefs and warnings about scams like this. this happens alot on ebay and other auction sights.

It's more a common scam to get [in this case] 5 grand worth of real money in exchange for 7 grand in play money. And, as it may seem in this case, to get an Imperials too.

what they do is have a company or fake bank over seas right a check and send it out when he takes it to the bank they electronically tranfer the funds wich they end up with his bank account info. they get the info but the money never shows up in his account. i have seen this with some of the kids in my command. the military keeps track of most of the scams out there and we get warned about them. i have seen this numerous times. think about it, why would they send 7 grand for a 2000 dollar car and then ask to western union 5000 to the shipping company when shipping could only be 1000 or so. i know lots of people that were stationed over seas and it cost them less than 1000 to ship a car to europe or the states. it might be ligit but ive seen this very same thing a few times. good luck

crap, i was hoping i could scam them out of there money!!! , oh well

[warbeak2099]

Damnit I forget who did this but I found a site where a couple people scammed one of these guys before he could scam them. They had him send the check and instead of sending the laptop he bought, they sent him a binder with old keys and a floppy disc glued to it lol. They took the check and the guy's information to the authorities and actually found where he was operating out of. The website of the "shipping" company disappeared shortly afterwards. Hysterical.

find a check cashing service, cash check, then deposit?

I doubt it would work though.

[Rudz]

yeah they ask for your information at most check cashing places, took me like 4 hours to cash a check i got from college
