Here is an email about a guy that wants to buy my jetta.. I would like any information about this scam thats going around...

Thanks, here it is

Hi Thanks for your mail. We have enlarged the available pictures and accessed the car, with the help of our local motor mechanic here who has helped in clarifying some certain features of this car . The customer is ok with the vehicle and has agreed to settle for the price of $14,200. 00 US dollars with everything affixed. I have also just finalized payment issues with him some hours ago, and he has informed me that he is expecting a refund payment of a vehicle that he had earlier ordered and paid for about a month ago, but the order was later cancelled, because when the agent went to pick up the vehicle, he inspected the order and discovered that the vehicle was not in any good condition, so the order was cancelled, and then he filed in, for a refund of his money.

My customer now intends use this his refund to pay for this car that he now wants to buy. Due to company policy and book keeping, this refund payment which he is expecting, can only be made out in this one whole amount, that is the full amount which he paid before, because the company policy only allows a refund payment in one cashier check, so he has to instruct for the check payment to be drawn to you. So he has informed me that payment will get to you in a cashier check. He is expecting a refund payment of $20,000. 00. When payment gets to you, you are required to deduct the cost of your vehicle which is $14,200 and assist him in returning his remaining balance of $5,800.00 back to the customer for him to be able to offset shipping charges, tax and other commission charges. After all payment has reached you and balance sent back to my customer, the agent will come for pick up, while you send the receipt and other title papers to my client via courier. You are required to forward your payment information (1) name,(2)address and (3) phone number for payment to be made to you immediately. Thanks, Richard T. TAKE CARE
