Angry Another Scam

Hi all.

Merry Xmas & a Happy New Year.

I am unfortunately selling my WRX and i have received this email this morning. I emailed back saying that i have forwarded it to Scotland Yard!!

'''Hello,

How are you today? fine I presume, and Compliments of the Season. My name is Hilary Davies. The purpose of writing you this mail is in respect of your advert, I saw on the Internet and I'm really interested in buying your car for your price of £5,995. So I would like you to give me your payment details i.e. full name, address and phone or conditions and also the last price for the car. I will be making payment through certified banker's cheque, I’ve already seen some details on the internet and its okay with me, will like to no if it is still avaliable for sale and if you can send any photos for better viewing.

Don't get bothered about the shipping because I will solemly handle that personally. I will be waiting to read from you soonest so as to enable us proceed.
Stay Blessed and have a nice day.

Kind regards,

Hilary Davies'''

Needless to say, i cant print what i think of these people.

Have fun all

Ian

and if you can send any photos for better viewing.

I think you should send photos of some rusting heap and see if the sender even realises it's the wrong car.
