Hi Tiffany I have had one from Mr Jackson Smith as well. couldnt even address it to me personally, just seller, and no actual painting specified, Yes I am afraid another scam, destination the bin.

Hiya. I just had an email from a guy called James Moore. Checked it out on google and a few other people have had the same email. Tis a scam. Watch out! He is from Agro Trading or something.

Feel horrible cos at first you think you have a customer. Damn these people, tis just rude. xx

Hi there!
Yes I agree it is very rude and leaves you with a bad feeling....Good news is that I haven't had anymore. But then I haven't had a sale yet either!!
ha ha
:shock:

regards,
Tiffany

The advice to check forums when receiving an email is good, also google the buyers naem and email. we have to help protect each other - there are too many morons out there trying to get it. Its sad when you think you ay have a sale but better to find out Before you get conned or waste too much time on contact.
