Hi guys, We have a tractor forsale on this sight, had a guy email us about it, was playin cat and mouse on the price, we lowered it abit and he said still to much so we mailed back and said no thats final. So here is what he emailed back---Thanks very much for your response ,the reason I am sending you this email is to make final reconfirmation of the Tractor which goes for $2,300 and it"s ok by me,also to let you know that payment will be by Money Order. In view of this I need you to email me any information that may be required to send the payment as I do not want to send the check or money order to a wrong location lest they get into the wrong hands.Regarding the shipping, I have a freight company that takes care of the pickup of my consignments for me and ship to my destination , you should"nt get worried about shipping, the company will send down a representative to arrange the sales documentation and the pick up from your end for onward transfer to my destination. I also want to alert you on the fact that you will be receiving an overdraft Money Order, which will cover the money for the pickup (pickup and shipping to the final destination) as well as the money to be paid to the company that will take care of the pickup and the documentation with you. So please, as soon as you receive the payment, go and cash it immediately, deduct the money that accrues to you, and send the balance to the Head Office of the company that handles the shipment .I will give you the details of the company that will be shipping the Tractor as soon as we seal this deal.Once the money is received by the agent ,the shipping agent will contact you immediately to arrange the documentation as well as the pick up immediately.So in view of the above, here are some of the details I will need for final issuance of the Money Order to you.
(1) Full Name
(2) Mailing address, no p.o.box please
(3) your direct telephone number both home and cell.?
{4} accept my offer
{5}Final asking price
Once you get back to me with all the above, the check will be issued out immediately by my business associate and it will be sent to you .Hope to hear from you immediately.Looking forward to your swift response.

Don"t know about you guys but i think it has SCAM written all over it. We have asked the guy in 3 different emails for his ph# and address, but no info. I think we will email him back and say NO DEAL! If you want the name email me.
