Attempted Autotrader PayPal Scam ([email protected])

Posted a vehicle on Autotrader and received a message within a day from [email protected] with the same messages we googled on your scam information, almost verbatim dialogue message, stating how she was buying the car for her Dad for his birthday present. She stated to set up a PayPal account to process the money. Thank goodness for your website information to prevent innocent sellers headaches from scammers.

Please post the text of the email so that others using search engines can find it just like you did. Subtle changes are always appreciated to see around here. Note: remove any of your personal information before you post it. We only want the scammer's information.
