i was wondering if anyone knows how safe it is to do business through paypal?
i am tryin to sell someone one of my hovercrafts in texas but this last email seems shadey. everything was fine til this last email. what do you guys think?
Hello....Thanks for the peace of information about this Hovercraft I will be sending funds ASAP but before i make the payment,there is something i need you to be aware of,i just received an email from the shipping company that will be in charge of the pick up.They are saying i need to pay them their upfront fees which is $1,100 , $1000 is for the shipping company and the $100 is for the western union extra charges to send the $1000 to the shipper address before they proceed with coming for it and the only form of payment that they accept is Western Union Money Transfer.Where i am,the nearest union office is 16hrs from me right now and i could also send it online using their website,but they are not accepting any of my Credit cards.I don't know if it will be ok,if i include this agent's fees in the payment i will be sending you now,so on receipt of the total funds,you will remove the additional funds of $1,100 and help me send it at your local Western Union office which can be found at the post office or you could send it online at
Money Transfer | Western Union .i will be need your email with paypal so Let me know if this is ok and i will proceed with the payment.
