I received another email yesterday from someone attempting an art scam. This is the third one I've received over the last twelve months, I'm beginning to feel like I'm being picked on. Has anyone else experienced the same or had more than this? Each time I have received exactly the same email (word for word) from three different yahoo addresses. So if you receive the following in your in box delete it:
Hello seller, i came across your item on Folksy, I'm interested in immediate purchase of your item.
1) Is the item still available for sale?
2) Are you the real owner of the item?
3) What is the present condition of the item?
4) Do you accept PAYPAL as your mode of payment?
5) what is the final asking price?
Kindly get back to me with your reply to my private email :
(larryellison805@yahoo.com)
hope to read from you soon.
Best Regards
I have also received this email from the following addresses:
alexisandrew001@yahoo.com
and
tracymichael2011@yahoo.com
I know this is tarring everyone with the same brush, but if you receive an enquiry from an Oceanographer or Oil Rig worker in the Gulf (genuine Oceanographers and Oil Rig Workers please accept my apologies for this), or anyone else currently in an isolated spot trying to buy a present in a hurry for their mum etc. Be very wary if you send a reply to them. My advice would be to just delete the email.
