I appreciate your prompt response, I am buying It ASAP for my cousin residing in Ontario as a surprise. I wont be available by myself for inspection due to the nature of my work and present location. I will like you to email me with some close up shots of it and will arrange for it to be picked up by a pick up agent who will be coming for the inspection and pick up at your place once the payment clears, I will also be paying you through Paypal which i believe is safe and secured for both of us and I will also be responsible for the charges. All I need from you now is to get back to me with your Paypal email and name or send me Paypal invoice so that I can send your payment ASAP. What is your final asking price?

Just want to be sure about the sale before i proceed and If you need to reach me, send me an email as i Squeeze time every four-hours to check correspondence and respond at the same time.

Thanks

From me:
Sorry - I don't use PayPal and the numerous kijiji photos are sufficient.
- so send me $5,500 Canadian Bank Transfer of funds / deposited via my personal email.
- and provide the password
Vehicle sold without warranty / as is condition expressed.
- but did pass Ontario Inspections recently.
- you have 30 days, to arrange shipping @ your end / to avoid storage charges, once paid in full
I won't fall for a $$ SCAM - so buy vehicle or just disappear !!

PAYPAL SHIPPING SCAM ON KIJIJI OR EBAY

https://michaelweening.com/2012/07/21/paypal-scam-on-kijiji-or-ebay/

Which leads to the scam. They will then go into this elaborate scheme which can be broken down into the following steps:

1. They will send you a fake PayPal confirmation email that they have made a payment to you which you will get when they have received delivery with PayPal holding the money in escrow.

2. You must pay for the shipping to get the funds released, but do not worry because PayPal is holding your money plus the shipping fee.

3. You send the money and the whole PayPal email confirmations turn out to be fraud. You lose your money.

The best way to avoid it is in your online ad put at the end No PayPal payments accepted. It stopped all fraudulent emails.

Word for word, earlier example - from internet:

Bump. Buy this Jeep. Good, concise, "to the point" ad.

It's interesting that people would fall for this type of Paypal scam. All a person has to do is log into their own Paypal and see if the money is there. Paypal never operates as an Escrow.
