its not actually ebay, its my local classified ads. im selling my ds's cotbed and a bridesmaid dress.
a man emailed me asking what the final selling price is and i emailed back saying £140 for the items and this is what he replied with.....
Hello ,
Thanks for your reply,i will want you to know that i am okay with the price and condition of the Items (£140) but i will like you to get back to me with your (Full name,contact address and phone numbers) because i will tell my client to send you the cheque for (£2,800) on my behalf being a payment he owes me.
The reason i want him to send you the cheque is because he told me he wants to pay me by cheque and it will take longer time for a Uk cheque to clear in a Canadian bank as i am a canadian based and i don't bank with UK banks and i don't want any delay in your payment as i really need it.As soon as the cheque clears in your account i will want you to deduct the cost of the Advert and send the balance to the shipping company that handles my consignment through western union money transfer and they will come for the pick up from your location to my address as i have alot of things to ship.
Please get back to me with the details asked above so that the cheque will be made payable to you asap and i will compensate with £50 for doing this for me.I will also want you to remove the advert form the site and consider it sold to me only.
Regards
Jim

does this sound like a genuine person asking for a favour or is it something dodgy?
