Fraud on laptop sales (classifieds)?

I put a laptop up for sale today, the buyer has gone straight to my price. But somehow have a strange feeling… What do you think?

Could be Nigeria Connection.

E-mail address does not need a bank, unless à la NC the money would be instructed only if you give the shipment number.

I have been on ebay several times, all others are still trying to act because of the price, NC not.

You'll probably get a similar request from the bank for the tracking number.

Until then you can go, if that's the case, break off the trade. First receive the money, then give away the goods.

-

ebay classifieds advises against shipping goods. This platform is intended for on-site trading.

Would not agree. Cheated a lot on Ebay Classifieds.

Maybe he wants to get your bank details for some reason.

He can't really withdraw money with the data. Can you offer him payment via Paypal.

Sure is the scam and something of scams! In addition, an ancient mesh.

Right, why does the bank need your e-mail address? For a transfer you never need an e-mail address in life, the money will sooner or later be in your account.

The fraud will happen this way: at some point you will receive a confirmation from your bank that the transfer was allegedly made and you can now send the goods. Of course, all this is fake up to no longer works.

Tell the prospective buyer that it sounds like the Nigeria Connection, you are welcome to send the merchandise as soon as the amount has been credited to your checking account and not a second earlier and his email may be stuck elsewhere.

Paypal? Not a good idea. There are plenty of opportunities to be ripped off as a seller.
