I got a text from 209-437-7413 saying he was interested in buying my Harley and to respond in email to mattjackson@gmail.com, so I did. We came to a purchase price, but wanted to pay for it by Paypal. Then he emailed me back about the shipping company not accepting Paypal so wanted to send me eenough extra to cover it. I then get a spoof email from \"Service@PayPaI\" saying that I had a payment pending but would not be issued until I provided proof of paying the shipping company $1000 through Western Union.
Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.
They just called and said the same thing to my husband and his bike. He stated to them he won't pay shipping. We will not be falling for this scam. Thanks for the tip.

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
