I have had a similar stuation. Maybe foolishly I assumed that interest in my wife's car was genuine. I have sent my Paypal address and alarm bells only started to ring when Jennifer McCale (who apparently works on an oil rig and is buying car for her brother in law) accepted price for car and started talking about a £600 charge for her collection agent. At this point I searched Google for used car scams. Needless to say I haven't had a Paypal payment and would not pay anything until I had received and safely deposited cash in my own bank account. I had a phone call this afternoon from someone interested in car (he my be genuine) and let him know my real phone number (Autotrader.co.uk disguises numbers) and address as he had said he wanted to come to view vehicle this evening - I have heard nothing further. Has anyone come across a phone call being made as part of this scam? I am not sure what they can do with the information I have given them. I have since had a similar email from Josh A Victor but I am now aware of scam.
