PayPal is ok to pay with but sucks to receive with because of the large fees. On something as substantial as a car, the fees would be a lot. Most sellers will only accept PP on large amounts if you are willing to pay the extra fees.

That said, this email screams fraud in extremely large letters. All of the language in it, (can't talk on phone/surprise gift for relative/ "pick-up agent"/etc.), is textbook Nigerian 419 scammer talk. There is no such thing as a fking "pick-up agent".

They are trying to get your PP info for some nefarious purpose. Tell him that he must include a very young virgin for this transaction to work for you, see where that goes. Good luck...
