I recently advertised a bike for sale on Gumtree and after a couple of emails over price I received this email from a prospective buyer which seemed strange to me and I remember reading about something similar on this forum

needless to say I said I'd only sell local and for cash, pick up, haven't had a reply


"Thanks for the swift response. Am really impressed in purchasing and i need to make the payment right away as i need it urgently and kindly inform if you have other items for sale as i need some stuff for my new apartment and also am not in state right now and am willing to make payment via PayPal or bank transfer to your account and as well pick up will be made by a shipping company once payment is made to your account. Kindly get back to me with your paypal email address or bank details i.e bank name, account number and bsb so i can proceed with payment and pick up can as well be made immediately. I shall be waiting on your soonest mail once you receive my message.


Thanks and please kindly inform other buyers it is already sold."
