Paypal Scammer George More [email protected]
Nigeria
The scammer wants to steal your merchandise and have you ship it to him
The scammer will want to purchase an ‘item’ you have for sale on Craigslist, Ebay or another online site and may offer you more than your asking price to have you remove your advertisement quickly.
He will ask you to receive payment via his 'verified' PAYPAL or BANK payment and ship the 'item' to a relative or friend for him.
In this scam Paypal has not received any money to be paid to you and you will lose your merchandise if you ship. It is almost impossible to stop a shipment.
