alright so i listed my race boots on facebook, got a response asking whether the boots are in good condition (though it says excellent condition in the ad) and what my asking price was ($200, also in the ad). i responded, answering the questions politely and mentioning that the $200 is negotiable. i received the following email in response:
Hello,
thanks for your reply.i agree to pay the amount you want as final asking
price. my
mode of payment is Money Order, i am purchasing this item for my
boss.give me the list of all the items you have available for sale
including their prices/ more
pics. my
boss will include my commission/shipping fee in the payment and you
must deduct the amount of your item and w/u the left fund.don't worry
your self about the shipment.i do have a shipping company that will
handle pick the next day you received the payment.anyway below are the
questions i have for you.
1)Is the item in good condition?
2)Can you make sure you get the Money Order cash at your bank in one business day and send the left fund the same day?
3)Do
you agree to deduct your item fees and send back the left fund as my
commission and shipping fees the day you get the payment?
4)Do you understand that the shipping company will come and pick the item at your address the next day you receive the payment?
Answer
my questions and let me know if you understand that the amount that
will be on the Money Order payment will be more than your item fees due
to my commission and shipping fees.i want you to close the advert right
away and i will add extra $20 in your payment for closing the advert
for me early.i want you to email me the address to send the Money Order
payment and the full name you want on the Money Order asap today so
that the payment can be mail out and you will receive it the next day..
im thinking either A. scam or B. person whose first language is not english or C. both
