GOTTA BE A SCAM.
I've asked him to call me repeatedly, he only sends emails.
I am running from this one like it's got the plague.
Here's the last email he sent back to me:
Ron,
The mh was owned by my father, he died and that is the reason I am selling it. Title is clean, no accidents, leaks, mechanical problems or damages. No pets, no smoking, no other odors.
I am in the military and now I am in the base in AZ.
I am not allowed to leave the base without a strong reason. I also came up to Orlando a few weeks ago to meet someone who told me he is very interested in my motorhome, I took 3 days off to meet him, but he never showed up, he told me that something interfered and he is no longer able to buy the motorhome. So, I made all the trip for nothing.
I will not take another 3 days off to meet you without a serious proof that you really want to buy the motorhome.
So here is how we will proceed:
please make a 10% deposit on your name, here, in Orlando FL and as soon as I get the deposit confirmation, I will ask my superiors for 3 days off and meet you and have all the things done.
As I mentioned, I am a military contractor and it is very hard for me to take a permission to leave the base. If I have this strong proof that you are interested, I will be sure that I won't come for nothing.
So, here is how we will proceed:
Please go to wwwwesternunion.com and you will see there a button " FIND AN AGENT"
Please click on it and you will see where is located the nearest Western Union office from your place.Please ask a close friend to go to your nearest Western Union and place the deposit on your name, in ORLANDO FL. The friend will be the sender of the deposit and you will be the receiver of it. That way, the two of you will be the only persons who will have access to the funds.
Once the transfer is done, please email me the following details:
- the Money Transfer control number - a 10 digits number
- Sender's name and address, as on the transfer receipt (the person from your family that will make the deposit)
- Receiver's name (your full name, as on the transfer receipt), in Orlando, FL.
- Amount sent.
Or you can simply scan the receipt of the transfer from western Union and email it to me, so I can check the transfer's availability.
As soon as I can do that, I will take 2 days off and meet you and have all the deal done.
If you like the motorhome, we go together to a western union office and you pick up the deposit and handle it to me, together with the remainingg amount.
This will be a enough proof for me to take a plane ticket and meet you in Orlando and have all the deal done.
You will have to confirm me the date when you will be able to arrive in Orlando after I will provide you the available flights so I can buy my plane ticket too.
When you come in Orlando, you test and inspect it and also we go together to a service or dealer to confirm you that the rv runs perfect.
If something goes wrong with the motorhome and if it isn't as I have described it to you, then I will pay for your trip and for the time that you will lose.
We will have all the papers done on your name and after that we go together to a Western Union Office in Orlando and you pick up the deposit.
I also have to tell you that you will pay a fee to make the deposit via Western Union, but when we will meet in FL, I will substract it from the total amount...
Let me know if this is fair with you, i would hate to come to FL again for nothing, that`s why i`m making sure we have a deal.
Will not accept an alternative to my terms and I do not have any relatives in FL that could manage the transaction besides me.
A fast answer will be gladly apreciated!!!
Thanks
