Hi all please beware there is someone out there trying to scam people i have had this happen twice now i am trying to sell a board and they want me to pay $810 for private courier before i can get the money for the board this is the email i got last


Thanks for the swift response...I am willing to buy the Falcon now and i will like to know the present condition..But due to the nature of my job and location...i will not be able to come for inspection,am a very busy type as i work long hours everyday,i have gone through your advertisement and i am satisfied with it.

As for the payment..i will be paying you via the fastest and secure way to pay online(PayPal).

I have a private courier agent that will come for the pick up after the payment have been made ...so no shipping included.

You can now send me your PayPal email so i can pay in right away and also include your address in your reply.If you don't have a paypal account, you can easily set up one...log on to www.paypal.com.au and sign up. its very easy.I await your reply asap.



Then you get sent a Fake Paypal Receipt.

I really hope no-one gets stuck by this idiots.


Take care al
