I was a victim of an attempted scam. Thought I would share the experience just some you may see it coming.
So I have a boat for sale on KIJIJI. I get a TEXT asking if I could respond to an email address. So why not. The guy comes back with 5 questions. Like Am I the first owner. Confirm price. Why I was selling. More detailed pictures.
So I respond with pictures.
Here's what I got back......"Thanks for your response and am glad you answered my questions as requested and i will be very glad to proceed with the purchase,so kindly get back to me with the full name and e-mail address on your Paypal account to effect the transfer as soon as possible and also get back to me with your full home contact address so that i can have it forwarded to the agent who will come for the pick up and the signing after the payment has been sorted out because i can not complete the purchase in person at the moment due to the nature of my job...I await your fast response...Thanks"
Pecker Head,...... I send him this...." Sorry no Pay Pal, have your agent bring cash"
Jerk, what do these guys think?
