Ha ha my mate rang me last night coz this guy Kenneth was sending him weird emails and he couldn't figure out how he managed to contact him directly rather than through seabreeze (selling a Kite).

He needed some Gen Y help, after putting in my 2 cents he rang his other mate who's a cop and was told that these nigerians have got some scam where if you send them a pay pal invoice, or give them your bank details they can track down enough of the remainding info required to get a dodgy online loan in your name.

Good times... You scumbags!!

Dude make him work for it, play dumb and string him out for weeks. also and figure out who else approached you before he did to pass on your details. So seabreeze can boot them.

^^
Thanks Damage, I was wondering how he would get my money! I'll keep him going.

I had the same thing selling both my motorcycles
funniest part is when they eventually ask you for money to be sent to some random (probably them) so this random can pay you back
ludicrous
concerning that people out there fall for it

Our mate Kenneth is a huge time waster.

Everybody in the Buy & Sell has been notified, so pretty sure there will be slim pickings for him on Seabreeze.

What about poor kenneth? He probably has a family of 12 to feed.

Even the scammers dont want my wake skate.....

I'll keep him going too. See what he says when I get a better offer!!!
What a bunch of a$seh@les.

I said today that I've increased the price from $650 to $1000. I asked if he was still interested, answer yes send me paypal invoice immediately.

Feel like responding with --ck off and waste someone else's time.

Next contact I'm increasing to $1200.

I raised it to1200 from 650 and he replied you're crazy.
I'm going to ask him if he is still interested and see what happens.

59? that's an epic time wasting effort. keep up the good work!

64 in total and he finally cottoned on that I was playing him lol!

Hey, the scam was essentially that he had 'transfered' the cost of the gear & shipping to my 'paypal account' (which I had never set up). But for security reasons the money was held invisible to my account by 'paypal' untill I sent his shipping company the money for shipping via Western Union.

My brother has been getting it heaps from a CAR SALES website.

They even send a sms from an overseas number or email address that comes up with their "name" in your smart phone..

Got 4 alone yesterday. If only i could sign the boys at work up for these emails to drive them mental!
