beware nigerian scammer at this address, tried to paypal scam me, ie send it and prove in transit before funds are released
I had a bad feeling about this one and checked with paypal several times and sent the fake emails to paypal's spoof address, I even rang them to confirm that no funds were pending, if you are sending out of the country check double check get a landline and an address for this country, cover yourself, go overboard if you have to just don't get ripped of !!!!!!!!

it also helps if you google the address, if there are any scams going on some one will post the address as a warning, hopefully some one will google a potential scammers address and see this post and save a lot of heartache

The buyer contact us regarding the pending payment of your account

We are really sorry that the money paid by the buyer of your item have not been Credited in your Pay Pal Account. But due to some reason we will not be able to credit your account till you provide us the scanned receipt from the post office after posting out the item because there have been many fake seller on here that rip buyer's off and collect there money but never post the item to the buyer that is why Pay Pal Board of Directives make the policy that payment should not reflect or be pending into the sellers account until he/she provided us the scanned receipt from the post office after posting out the item.

So we urge you to get back to with the scanned receipt today because the buyer have made payment for the item and will be pending till you get back to us with the scanned receipt so that your money can reflect in your Pay Pal account but failure to do that will lead to your suspension of your Pay Pal account and all you information will be given to the Police or Interpol which is the body that govern as one of the fake seller on Gumtree.

If you have any question(s) regarding your payment, or for sending Shipment Information, please send mail to us. When Shipment Details are received and verified, you will be issued a transfer code which would indicate that the transfer of money into your PayPal Account was successful.
