Guy saw my 68 Camaro online.. says he wants to buy it and offers me $70k for it.
For that price I would sell. Wants to wire me the money prior to looking at the car (even though he is supposed to be local). I've been stringing him along for several days and just dangling my bank info out there. Asked him what bank he uses and that we could just meet at a branch and do the transfer. I had nothing back from him for 2 days so I thought I scared him off.. Today I get this email..
Hello Steve,

At least he didn't say his client was in Nigeria.. :lmao:
I sent him back an email saying that my bank was Wells Fargo also (it is) and that we could just meet at the bank when he is back in town to do the deal. I told him that being ex law enforcement (a lie) has made me suspicious and that "i am sure you can understand" also said that this would protect him as well.
Ball is in his court.. It is sorta fun. I wonder what kind of excuse he will come up with now?
Anyone know how to trace an email or email addy??? I just know Nigeria figures into this somehow.. ;)
