    Exclamation 2 Good 2 be True

    Hi ladies and gents.

    Hopefully someone can advice me on this as I'm not sure if this could be a scam or not. Any constructive feed back would be appreciated.

    I'm planning to buy a sometime from a guy in Waterford. The product I'm buying normally costs about €890. The guy selling it is looking for €430.

    I can't drive down there, so the seller said he'd be happy enough if I transfer half the amount into his bank account. He'll then post the product to me, once I receive it and I'm happy with it I'll transfer the other half.

    Does this sound safe? Or could it be a scam?

    Potentially you could be out of pocket to the tune of €215, personally not a situation I would be happy with.

    If he suggested transferring the money by Western Union then u know it's definitely a scam, but the fact that he said bank transfer gave me more confidence
