Heads up, I had what appeared to be an interested buyer in my 914. We agreed on a sale price, then suddenly a "transfer agent" was needed. I was told they would send an additional $900.00 for the transfer agent along with the agreed sale price money. The email came from what looked like Pay Pal. The email said funds were being held by Pay Pal until I wired $900 to an account in the UK. Seriously how dumb are people?? The Pay Pal email appeared legitimate at first, but their the language was not perfect.
Anyway just a note to always be cautious. There were many red flags from the beginning so it did not surprise me. |
