I KNOW this is a scammer, and i'm going to play the game with them to get all the email adresses i can and forward to paypal and western union and whomever else they mention... in the past i have even forwarded email copies to the FBI as they were used by the scammers as threats...

I am hoping this will help someone else.

JUST |for the record... I"m selling a
1978 John Deere backhoe, <with pictures> that is NOT running, and asking $4000 for it. I wonder how much they are going to included for the 'shippers fee' hehehhe...

:laugh-s: :laugh-s: :laugh-s:
:=) :=) :=) :oh-joy: :oh-joy: :oh-joy: :beer: :beer: :beer:

The first address was the origional sending adress, but when i hit the reply button, the second address is where it was going, i have no idea how they do that, but that is how is was.

Hi, Thanks for your mail. i would be glad to pay for it as soon as
possible though i will not be available to come for an inspection due
to my busy schedule. I will be paying you with my PayPal because it's
attached to my bank account and at this time paypal is the only method
of payment that is easy, secure,reliable and fast for me to make
payment without no delay online so kindly get back to me with your
PayPal ID. You need not worry yourself about shipment,i will instruct
the shipping company to handle that i will be making the
payment as soon as i have your paypal ID to complete the transaction.
Get back to me with answers to the following questions below.

1) What is the condition and the total price?
2) Are you the First Owner?
3) Your PayPal Email Address
4) Your Pick Up Location Address and your phone number

The pick up address will be forward to the shipping company to
schedule an appointment with you for pick up. I have a private pick up
agent that will come for the pick up after payment has been made. And
want you to know that pick up and mover's fee will be included in
your payment, so upon receiving payment, you'll make the pick up money
payable to the movers. If you do not have a PayPal account, you can
do so by logging on to http://www.paypal.com and set up your account it is
free,easy,secure and guarantees customer's safety in all transaction.
I await your reply

Thanks
