Alright Yea Forumsros, let's be serious for a second--

Alright Yea Forumsros, let's be serious for a second--
I just placed something a laptop for sale on LetGo,
there were a few buyers interested but I went with the one who gave me the most money...


But there is an issue here.
The address they've provided me is from Nigeria.
I'm well aware that Nigerians are known to be nefarious for scamming Americans, as seen by this email screen-cap that I've received

The address checks out on Google Maps to be legitimate-- the zip-code kind-of drew a red-flag because it was also coincidentally one from Keller, VA.

With your permission Admins, I'd like to post the info they've provided and the numbers they've provided as means of correspondence.

I'm not sure what to do guys.

Note, I haven't shipped the package yet.

That's not how you use the word "nefarious"

send it. if you dont know what to do you with something so blatent you deserve to learn that hard way.

Yeah, he should have put "notorious" there.

Please ignore my busted way of speaking, I just woke-up a while ago, it's still early where I'm at.

Yeah, my bad Yea Forumsro.

Right now it's very difficult to gauge.
I want to be 1001% sure that I'm not about to:

1. Give them my email.
2. Give them access to any transactional information.

This is my first time selling on LetGo, and yes I'm well-aware of scammers this day-and-age.

Clearly you arent if you think they are going to be using a fucking gmail account to send/receive email.

Do I have the admin's permission to post the phone number's they've been texting me with?

Your trolling is stupid and insipid, sit the fuck down because you're clearly a beta and not an oldfag.
You reek of newfag.


So, I want to know the truth--
should I send this laptop or not?
It wants me to check my PayPal account, and I just did. There are no incoming/pending transactions
but they are also not on the potential Nigerian scammer-list.
It's the fact that there are several red-flags here, it's not paranoia, it's legit confusion.

t.subhuman niggerian

They're pretending to be an official paypal something with a gmail account, user

usually those emails come with the PayPal(dot) me domain right, I'm not going completely bonkers here?

If the paypal payment goes through, then it's fine. But if they "send" the payment multiple times and it never goes through, then they say something like:

>"well, since that isn't working, I can send you a money order"

Move on to the next buyer.

My guess is this is just a troll in itself and there's no situation at all.

Yesterday they had wanted me to go to the local USPS, and even when I spoke to the mail-clerk not even an hour ago, she even seemed kinda weary.

Alright, I forwarded the possible fraudulent email to their phishing-detector, I'll keep you guys updated.

If you get a physical check, chances are they'll over-pay. If you agreed on $500, they'll send $1000. Then they'll ask you to cash the check, and send the computer along with the other $500.

Then about a week later, the funds never come through. You're now on the hook for $1000, and they made a quick $500 and got a free laptop.

They didn't send a check.
Just PayPal.

Like I said, if they payment goes through on PayPal, it's legit.

Alright, I'm gonna do this for the sake of keeping this thread alive:

Numbers:
>2622978820
>2486577303

Name: Agba Mark

Address 1b Toyin Street,
City: Ikeja
State: Lagos
Country Nigeria
Zip: >23401

Wow sorry, what I meant to say was:
The only email I've received from these buyers was that email, and the payment doesn't clear until they've received the tracking-number, do I get that upon check-out, or does that take a while?

Like, I don't know how this works guys.
Literally have never shipped anything with USPS, let alone sold anything off LetGo before.


Sorry for shitty sentence formation, I'm just really anxious and half-tired.

You're still a fucking moron. You're like my grandma trying to justify replying to spam emails.

Okay, so I shouldn't ship it?? (.__.)

It's like fucking almost 9am where I'm at, I just need this money to take care of doctor co-pays dude.

>Agba Mark
>MrsPatrick

Sounds fishy. Try sending a box of dirt or something. You can get a tracking number that way. Then if the payment goes through, send the real package, and update them with the new tracking number.

They'll get two boxes, and probably be a little confused by the first one, but at least you'll be safe.

This is actually fucking brilliant!
Thanks man!

You got an email claiming there's a pending transaction in your paypal account
You verified with paypal there are no pending transactions.
The wording of the email is trying to pretend they're official paypal something
The email isn't from paypal, it's gmail
They're telling you you need to ship first before you get any money
Your email provider flagged it as dangerous

Jesus fucking christ man

YELLOW TANTRUM

We (I say “we” makes me feel part of a group) hold some opinions to be self-evident, I ramble on and on but make very little sense. I will throw tantrums and hold my breath until I get things the way I like it.

Yea Forums is a place for stuff, but I grew up a tiny bit so now I feel stuff is bad. I GET REALLY SHRILL AND AND MAY EVEN DISPLAY SOME RACISM!!!


Section 1. Ban all PEOPLE I DON’T PERSONALLY LIKE as follows:

- STUFF I DON’T LIKE
- SOMETHING I DON’T LIKE EITHER
- MORE STUFF I DON’T LIKE
- STUFF (I don’t personally like)
- STUFF THREAD
- THREAD WITH PICTURES I DON’T LIKE
- PEOPLE I DON’T AGREE WITH HAVING FUN THREADS
- MORE THREADS WITH STUFF I DON’T LIKE
- THREADS THAT AREN’T THE WAY I LIKE THEM
- THREADS WITH MORE STUFF I PERSONALLY AM AGAINST
- SOMETHING (that I personally don’t like but in a different way than above mentioned, it’s things that PEOPLE I DON’T LIKE like and it makes me mad)

Section 2. Here’s some stuff that I’m not triggered by so that’s okay.

Section 3. MY MAKE-BELIEVE GANG WON’T throw tantrums anymore if Mods ban all PEOPLE AND THINGS I DON’T LIKE.

I’m not really anonymous because I want my identity known so I can prop up my fragile ego.

Alright. Got it. Not shipping.
Thanks for your help guys.

We helped? Fuck. I wish more people thought i was helping them when i point out they are fucking morons.

I mean yeah, I should've seen it a mile away, but I guess for someone gravely-ill selling their stuff I needed verification and some guidance because I don't have much experience with these things, not like that's relevant or anything.

Also
No website in the email
No company name
Email address zero hits in google
Literally nothing you can verify
But hey they imply they have something to do with paypal

Yup.
