May be honest... none of the obvious "over pay" attempts, etc.

Mentions Money Orders straight up. And there are so many used BMWs in Germany, Belgium, etc that to go through the cost of bringing an inexpensive one from the US for European re-sale is, IMHO, a joke. I think this is the scam in a new sheeps clothing.

I sent him an email back describing the car and saying that I will accept absolutely NO money orders. Betcha he emails me back with an excuse.

I think you've nailed it right off the bat. The poor grasp of the language and questions asked make this an obvious fraud.
