Its not only some of the ads that are bs. There are scammers who reply to used ads. The following I just received about a car I am selling:
aThanks for the swift response...due to nature of my job i will not be able to come for inspection,am a very busy type as i work long hours everyday,i have gone through your advertisement with the pics and i am satisfied with it.. I will be glad if you can mail me the present condition with the full price as well..
As for the payment..i will be paying you via the fastest and secure way to pay online(PayPal).
I have a private courier agent that will come for the pick up after the payment have been made ...so no shipping included. My private courier agent will come for the pick up and sign all necessary documents on my behalf after the payment have been made, as they will also be coming with all the information needed, my details and transferring the name of ownership to me will be done by the pick up agent so you don't have to worry about that...
You can now send me your PayPal email so i can pay in right away and also include your address in your reply.If you don't have a paypal
account, you can easily set up one...log on to
www.paypal.com and sign up. its very easy.I await your reply asap."
Thanks
Mark
