Scammer alert

[Mr.F]

Beware we have another scammer targeting advertisers in our Classified section. The name is Rayman and he appears to be fairly well known. The format of the initial contact is:

Hello Seller, I want to buy this car and need to know the last price,what is the condition of the car and please i can only pay using pay pal, and after payments has been made i will arrange for pick up of the car. Thanks. Rayman.
The stilted wording is identical to responses on other car forums. Apparently he is capable of attaching malware to your PayPal account if you respond and also tries the Western Union shipping scam...beware!

Can someone put a block on him - email address given is dedaveray@rediffmail.com

Thanks Mike, I heard from him yesterday and felt a bit uneasy about it. I was going to post a question on this and you've already answered it.
