Shown here is a copy of one of the SCAM emails that a few sellers on the SHO Classifieds have received.

THIS IS A SCAM!! DO NOT GET TAKEN BY THIS PERSON!!

- SHO CLUB

 

"Hi xxxxxx,
Thanks for your mail.I am delighted to tell you that my client appreciates and commends your Sho, with full interest, he is willing to carry on with this transaction.Futhermore he advised that the Sho ad. should be taken off internet and consider your it as being sold. I have finalized with my client on the price of ($xxxx) which is the last bottom price for your Sho and its ok by him, I have forwarded your vehicle information including your last mail to him for his proper records.

 

He also instructed me to inform you that payment will get to you in a US certified cashier cheque of ($3,200) drawn on a familiar U.S bank which is a refund payment of a cancelled order earlier made by my client. Due to company policy this cheque has to be made out in this amount to you,Because company policy only allows a refund payment on one cashier cheque.So you are required to deduct the cost of your Sho($xxxx) when payment gets to you and refund balance ($xxxx) to the Agent (our shipper) for him to be able to offset shipping & tax charges, and other cosmetic repair costs.

 

After payment has reached you and balance sent back to my agent,he will then proceed with his mechanics for the inspection, pick up(of Sho & signing of papers), make some cosmetic touches and ride to a prepaid shipper to be shipped to my customer,while title papers and other necessary documents will be handed over to my agent at the time of pick up.

 

Please confirm this and forward the following informations:
Names:....... Address:....... Phone#:.......

 

For payment to be made and send to you as soon as possible.I decided to mail it now for urgent purpose of this transaction so i will call you with your number as soon as payment is sent to you. Thanks for yor understanding and co-operation

 

Best regards.
Jimmy Bellamy
