Long story but please read
Yesterday morning I had a call from this Robin asking if I still wanted a 351 Cleveland, I told him that I had already bought one, he said he had his sons one sitting in the garage and as they were moving wanted rid of it. He was asking for £200, I asked where he lived and he said Norfolk, he then said that as he used a company for his business he could get it to me for only £18.50.
The only problem was he wanted to be paid before it was sent and me would let me have it for the £200 all in.
Tempted or what!!!! yep so I said about paypal and he said he wanted it deposited in this account
"Miss catherine a edmeades lloyds tsb sort code 77.30.12 account 01667368 please deposit 200pounds for Cleavland engine thanks robin"
I said I could not do it myself but my wife could tomorrow (Today) after work at 12.
I later text him for the details again expressing my concern about sending the money no matter how little without knowing if he had it. he emailed me the above and again phoned this morning asking if was still on, I said it was as I had already given the money and details to my wife to put it in the bank.
12.15 today I had a phonecall off my wife who wanted me to speak to the woman at the bank. I was told that she could not give me details, but as soon as she entered the details it flagged up a warning, it looks like there are lots/loads of complaints about this account that people had paid into it and not recieved thier goods, while she could not tell me not to deposit into the account, she advised me not to.
I phoned and left a measage with Robin that they would not take the money and thought I would not hear anything more.
at about 4, Robin phoned and asked if I had paid, I told him what happend and he told me that he had been to the bank that afternnon and that had been sorted and the engine had already been sent, I said that as I had trused him to send it that as soon as it arrive I would pay into the account.
He said he wanted to paid before and then said that the engine had not been sent and was going out in the morning. I said that I already had one and it was only going to be a spare and if he would not trust me the money when I had it, I did not want it, he said OK and hung up.
So if you have a email or phone call from this Rob/Robin from norfolk, tell you dont want to pay first.
