"" Thanks a lot for the email. I am away at sea at the moment,i work with New Zealand Oil and Gas (NZOG) and we are presently offshore in New Zealand Taranaki Basin on kapo project. We do not have access to phone at the moment,its 5days off and 25days on,which is why I contacted you with internet messaging facility. Where is it located at the moment? I am buying it for my for my holiday and i want it delivered before my arrival.I won't be able to come for the inspection due to the nature of my work and i would have called but our calling is restricted.Regarding the payment,pls get back to me with your final asking price and your paypal details so i can process the payment,you can alternatively send your bsb and acct number if you have no paypal acct.I have also contacted my courier who will come for pick up after the whole fund has been cleared into your acct. Await your reply "" Now alarm bells were ringing - I work in the oil industry and have also worked in NZ - the facts are just wrong !!! Not only that, who buys furniture for their "holiday". So I decided to check the web for "Kapo project Taranaki basin" and found this website. Thanks for the confirmation and hope the additional email addresses and mobile number of the scammer help someone else. | ||||
