Anyone had experience of this before?

Appreciate these comments, guy is still saying he is sending a cheque and I am still chatting with him.
I will get back to him via email tonight and say the sale is off.
Cher, got suckered in on that one didn't I. Oh well lesson learnt.

Just glad you didn't part ways with your money.

Now lets see.

Consultation fees = $800

Mail the check out next week if you like.

Ok, do you take Western Union, hehehehe.

Cash up front if you want to get real with the buyer. If they really want it they'll front with cash. No test rides without something of equivalent value left behind (unless you got primo insurance). Just the standard stuff to protect yourself.

When the check clears, you can use the money to help a good friend of mine that works for the Nigerian government and has the sweetest deal for you.

You could have at least waited for the check to arrive before telling him to fark himself, then you can frame it. What name was he using and have you tried googling it? I had a similar experience, googled the name and came up with a scam warning.

Could you post copies of your corresspondance with this guy?

Sounds like a scam.

Insist on him paying by paypal.
