Hello there,
Thank you for the fast reply.
I am willing to proceed with the transaction now and pay you £430
which include p&p.kindly login to your paypal account and select the
request money button located at the top of your paypal account
homepage
and send the money request directly to my paypal account id
which is lindhalbert01@yahoo.com so that i can submit payment to you
via paypal right now as paypal is safe, fast and easy to send and
receive money online.

If you don't have a paypal account just login to www.paypal.com and
set up your paypal account, after setting up your paypal account you
locate the request money button located at the top of your paypal
account home page, use it to request money directly from my paypal
account which is lindhalbert01@yahoo.com once I receive your money
request from paypal, I will submit payment to you via paypal asap.

Thanks
Mrs. Linda Halbert.

THIRD EMAIL after asking her to send the money to my account, rather than me requesting from him.

Hi there,
Kindly process the money request from paypal, because I do not want
any situation whereby you tell me maybe I sent payment to a wrong
account as this has happened in the past and when I contacted paypal,
they advise me to always request for payment invoice from seller then
I will use the link on the money request to submit payment to seller's
account directly. I can not proceed with the payment if I do not
receive paypal money request directly from your paypal account to mine
which is lindhalbert01@yahoo.com
Many thanks

Mrs. Linda Halbert.

  2. Sorry to hear that Hassan,
    all I can say is to contact your local police office and ask for any help or advice they can provide.
    Unfortunately I cannot help you in that matter, but if I was you I would not send them any more money of course.
    Please share with the blog the details of the person that scammed you to help other people avoid them.

    I got bogus emails from the email address verified-acc@consultant.com and the initial contact was from the email address:
    chantel.coffell@yahoo.co.uk

    This was done through the UK website Gumtree

  7. I want to thank you for having this here or I would have been scammed out of £600 and a 40inch tv! I have had the same chantel coffell contacting me recently off my gumtree advertisement, I thought it was too good to be true and came across this, thanks for bringing it to my attention, how can I report this person, even though I have had no money taken, I think this person still needs to be reported.

  8. hi Anya,
    I don't know how can you report this person. I guess you could go to your local police station and ask about it, however I am not sure if they can provide any assistance or can actually do something about it.
    You could add a comment with the details of the person who contacted you, emails-names etc even the full email they send you so others could be warned by simply doing an online search
