My son received this reply to a bike part he is selling on Gumtree today:
Thanks for your swift response. Have gone through your advert on Gumtree and I'm well pleased with all you've stated.In regards to the price it sounds okay.Happy to proceed with the purchase..I won't be available to view because I’m recovering from surgery and my phone is not active as I am still at the hospital after. can you assure me i will not be disappointed? also no shipment involved as i have a mover that will come for it., regards the payment, I can pay you through direct bank deposit (EFT),using paypal instant bank wire transfer service, I will need your bank details and I will make the payment through paypal facility to your bank account,all I will need is your acct number,BSB number and acct name or paypal.Looking forward to read from you shortly. Cheers
He had me look at it because he thought it might be a scam. I haven't heard of paypal instant bank wire transfer service. It reminds me of the offer to buy your car through PayPal has I am on an oil rig and my friend will pick it up.
I suggested he ignore it.
