I just got this message on my cell phone "Hi if your vehicle on kijiji still available, I will give you an additional 800 on it. Please email me asap on rupertmeinke22@live.com. This message sent by +15877732121.

I was selling my car on craigslist and he texted me from 720-432-3481 and asked for the condition and said email him back at bushjerry91@gmail.com.  So i did he then said he would love to come and inspect it but due to his "job" he would not be able to, but has an agent to come pick it up.  so before i was able to give him more about the car's condition he asked for my paypal account and address to complet the transaction.  

first of all why would you give someone money before know more about the car or problem with it.

was a little shady so i googles him email and sure enough i found this wedsite

Thanks guys saved me from a scam.

Very obvious, scam!!!!!
He contact me using email address;  richardjames2124@gmail.com

UPDATE: This guy now texts from 760-678-5562

They're trying the same BS on me. Definite scam!

I got a text lastnight for my escort the number was 17605151186. Hope they catch him! D:
Good thing I googled the email address ahaha.

got a text from this fellow offering 800$ more just as all you have posted word for word but this time a different number again 646-600-8470 myself i'm in alberta

THIS IS A SCAM. THE GUY WORKS OFF JUMPING IP ADDRESSES SO HE WONT REALLY GET CAUGHT BUT DONT DEAL WITH bushjerry91@gmail.com 213-640-2921

Same thing just got a txt from this a** offering $800 more, we googled it and saw all of these notes! Hope he gets what is coming to him.

He just did the same to me from a 6464936842 number i called it back and its a " pinger" number, also offered me $800 above price.and also now as i type this from 937 280 5023 and 740 248 5623 wow buddy is on a rampage.  all i want to do is sell my car.

well, he is still at it.  thankfully I googled his email address and arrived here (there are other sites)...

This time the number was 646-503-5506, and I received a related but different approach from another, at 213-640-2921 named bushjerry91.

If you know how to report those numbers, please feel free to do so.

Thank GOD for websites like this, where I can find out right away its a scam!

Well in regards to the Vehicle am very much interested in buying it from you so you don't have to look around for any other buyer again.  I am actually buying it for my Parent at home in Ontario as a surprise and before i can get it sent it to them i have to make sure the its in a good condition . I hope you understand my point that there is no way i come to do the inspection of the Vehicle my self as have said earlier besides the Car will be picked agent that will be coming over to pick the Vehicle up and transported to Ontario where my Parents stays, So whatever you tell me  about the good and the bad aspect of the Vehicle is what i will believe and also inform the Pick-up agent

After have completed the payment the agent will contact you about where and when the pick up will take place and they will also be of assistance to do the change of ownership when they get there.   but before i proceed with the Payment is there is any problem which you're yet to mention that i should know , please let me know now meanwhile can you please please take the add off online now till we complete the transaction

please send me your PayPal email and i will make the Payment right now

Richard

I just almost got taken in by this person as well.  Everything identical to what everyone else has posted.  BEWARE PEOPLE!!!!    He then states that he requires $600 sent as freight fees upfront and he'll reinburse once he makes his payment through paypal.  Don't get taken in.  Report this SOB to kijiji and paypal.  I did and hope they investigate and catch the SOB.

Same texts received as above for a car ad I posted.  What a w**ker...

Same here bugging me.
I sensed it earlier he's a scammer.

Hello
 
      I was just thinking you might have had some other buyer's who are interested in buying the Vehicle from you before i contacted you so i think the best way for me to outbid them all is by offering you another additional $800.CND to your asking price on the ad on Kijiji,  I won't be coming for the inspection of the Vehicle my self due to present Job,  I only have a pick-up Agent who will be contacting you about where and when the picking of the Vehicle will taking place after have completed the payment transaction with you my self.

Please tell me a little more about the present mechanical condition and how often you do the service or if possible the history ?. I will wait to read from and if we come to an agreement i will proceed with the payment immediately

People, according to The Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, this is a PAYPAL SCAM. Don't deal with this guy. Simply contact the center at 1-888-495-8501 to report it.

Thanks!

Got a txt message:

"Hi, I just saw your ad on kijiji. I'm ready to add additional sum of $800 to the price you are asking on the add if you will sell it to me. Please respond ASAP on my Email only now then will take it from there to: richard4sullivan@gmail.com"

same thing happened to me, told him ive decided to cut the car in half and use it as a park bench

He did this to me too.  Thought it was strange so I Googled him and found this.  I just emailed him with questions.  I don't get it how does he make money off of this?  He has my name, email and phone number, should I be worried?

It just happened to me too,,minutes ago.  Received a text on my phone offering me 800$over my asking price.  1/2 hour after I posted an add on Kijiji in Nova Scotia.  Area code was unfamiliar so I Googled the phone number and his email address and come across this site!!  the number was 1 760 239 7194 and the email was richar4sullivan@gmail.com.

Just got a text from this person as well but the number was different. (760-683-9876)

its a scam.

Yup same thing happened to me last night, except it was a different 760 area code.

Yup same guy here about my rendezvous, seems like typical scam. i usually play them to get as much traffic as possible. this can sometimes allow the authorities to try and catch them.  he txted from 17602370748  but he email was the same as yours here richard4sullivan.gmail.com . no one will ever pay more than a listed price for anything this is a scam.

I received the exact same message but the number was 760-671-0534. This screams scam...

Emails and then calls me from a BLOCKED number, didn't answer so he text messages me at this number.

He says hes ready to pay $800 ontop of my asking price for my car for sale, "Email only now"

he wants me to reply to "Richard4Sullivan@gmail.com"
