MESSAGE 2 FROM: Jessica Cole [bollyjoe @ gmail.com]
Great. am glad to read from you ,will appreciate more pictures... i am a marine engineer, i am at sea right now.I am buying this as a surprise promise Gift so am willing to offer you the amount you required. I can only pay through PayPal at the moment as i don't have access to my bank account online(i don't have internet banking with it), but i have it attached to my PayPal account, and this is why i insisted on using PayPal to pay,all i will need is your PayPal email address to make the payments, and if you don't have a PayPal account yet, you can set one up at www.paypal.com <http://www.paypal.com/>   it cant take you less than 3mins to do that, i will be expecting your PayPal email so l can pay and also get back to me with your best price on this. I have a pick up agent that will come for the pick up after payments has been sorted.

 l will be waiting for your reply asap

I haven't gotten a phone call, but now have "Okoh Rachael <okohrachy @ gmail.com>" in the list of  gmail accounts I've also logged into. I see this composing email in gmail as an additional "from" address I can select. I assume this means that okohrachy has compromised my gmail account :-(.

LOL...He just tried to buy a refrigerator (sight unseen I might add) with exact same setup in the email. My wife then gets  a very clever and authentic looking PayPal receipt of payment. To the casual user, it would fool them. Little does he know I am a computer geek too so I will hunt him down and when i find him, going to slice his balls off.

I have an ad in cl for a pick up truck and the same bollyjoe @ gmail.com address answered it. It had the same message as what is posted above. I always google the emails I get in regards to an ad so when I asked to have this "Jessica Cole" send her email associated with paypal to check it out I got no seponse back. Someone had already tried to scam us with paypal they had a gmail of peteree008 @ gmail.com and tried to impersonate a paypal employee to get us to send him $450. He called himself Peter Rex. So beware of both gmails I listed.

Same Drill here. Paypal already has this address as a scam...Great. am glad to read from you ,will appreciate more pictures... i am a marine engineer, i am at sea right now.I am buying this as a surprise promise Gift so am willing to offer you the amount you required.
