haha, I sent an email and I got a response about how she wants to send the gift to someone in the Philippines.

just send an email asking them to tell you what computer the user will be using to check compatibility and then you will find out for sure if that bitch is lying and if she is lying drive round her house and burn her face.

Keep 2 things in mind always.
1. Even with Paypal, wait at least 5-7 business days or until the funds are actually moved into your bank account or onto your CC before sending, not just sitting in your PayPal account. Lots of times people will pay the amount and you will get confirmation from Paypal, but then it's pulled or it's a stolen account and you've already sent the item and you get no payment.
2. If they ever offer to pay you way above asking and then request you return the difference (for various reasons), that is a known scam.

I used paypal many times before, after reading so many responses about how unsafe it is, It kinda makes me worried, I thought you could recieve the money, then transfer to your account, once is cleared you send the product, if its a scam, paypal gives you a full refund.
maybe not? I did get a few emails from some nigerian prince wanted to donate money to me, and although I never met him in my life, I just thought he was very nice..

I've made over 4k selling off old stuff through Ebay using paypal and haven't had any problems (yet).
But yup, that is a definite scam email. Ignore. I recognise the style.

Seems like Paypal is safe. They will refund you your $$ if theres a proble. But theres a 25 fee for returns which annoys me.

Response is a bit fishy, but yeah, for that kind of item i'd do a local pickup.
I don't trust PayPal either, it's money orders or no deal.

DON'T DO IT!!!!
I just listed a couple things on Craigslist the other day and received almost the same exact message from a few different people. I just deleted them. Don't even respond back out of curiosity because it is not worth it.
TOTAL SCAM!!!!

Here's what will happen.
You will get an email that looks like it is from PayPal. It isn't. Forward it to:
They will check it for you.You will also probably receive a shipping address somewhere in Nigeria. I'm serious. Why Nigeria, who knows, but that's where all this crap comes form I guess.
