And So the scamming begins

[farrendahl]

Well with the Partner now listed for sale I have already received my first scam email, I'm so proud I felt I did need to share it with you all, so here we are

[i]Hello Staurt,

The pictures you have sent to me are okay,i am willing to pay £4,800.00,a 10% deposit(draft) will be sent to you to hold the car for me till Sandra comes around for the inspection and viewing . When i have word from him that the car is in good condition the balance for the funds will be given to you in cash (Gbp) and the pick-up and final exchange of documents can take place,please email me if this arrangement is okay so



i can know what to do .



Regards'

Yes, it's short for "Shipping agent"

[farrendahl]

Well strangely enough he hasn't emailed me back. I almost feel a little disappointed

Clearly meant Sandro Munari, the rally driver, looking to restore Peugeot rallying pride by works prepping a Peugeot van.

It must have been, oh I've made a terrible mistake by mocking him. I've robbed the world of seeing a Peugeot Partner Combi charging around the Keilder Rally Stages and then possibly veering off and maiming dozens of spectators......what have I done?!?

Witty reply made, made me laugh!
Suspect will receive many more offers before long.

It'd be shame if this runs cold. In the meantime, i wasted many hours checking this site out.

Well alas he's not sending me any more emails which is a bit disappointing but C'est le vie. Unfortunately the only other interest I've had in the Partner has gone quiet on me which is equally disappointing
