I get one of these messages at least once a week, beware. IMO, this is a SPAM SCAM.

Thanks for your mail.am much impressed This is a good bussiness ,my customer saw FURTURE of the motor he was very happy with our company .he said that ITis exactly what he want.so lets move the transaction,see how the transaction will be happy to tell you that we have concluded with our client and he has instructed to carry on with the transaction,am Daniel! sales manager for , werterautomobile Boldernstrasse 83, 8708 Männedorf, Zurich Switzerland We specialise in purchase of auto machines for customers here in Europ , my client for evaluation and confirmation.Due to time constraint on the fact that we are running short of time , i am delighted to tell you that my client has commended your vehicle and he has instructed me to carry on with this transaction, he also instructed me to inform you that payment will get to you in a cashier check of $27,000,00..., which is a refund payment of a cancelled order earlier made by my client. Due to company policy this check has to be made out in this amount to you ,because company policy only allows a refund payment on one cashier cheque. So you are required to deduct the cost of your vehicle $$19400.... when payment gets to you and refund balance $7600..... to the shipper for him to be able to offset shipping & tax charges, and other cosmetic repair costs. After payment has reached you and balance sent to shipper, the shipper's agent will come for inspection, pick up (of vehicle & signing of title papers), some cosmetic touches and drive to a prepaid shipper to be shipped to my customer. Confirm this and forward your Names, Address and Phone number for payment to be made to you as soon as possible. Best regards to you and your family.

Please bear with US why we are given you over check because of a previous car and its shipment charges etc,but it was unfortunately sold .Due to company policy this check has to be made out in this amount to you ,because company policy only allows a refund payment on one cashier check so the check is now meant for the total expenses which includes the purchase of your car ,the pick up of the car from its present location and the shipping charges/other necessary shipping arrangements and my client have instructed that the check should be made out to your name provided that you will send the balance back to him through western union and deduct the western union charges from the balance so that he can be able to pay the shipping company and agents that will come for the pick up.After payment has reached you and balance sent back to him,our agent will come for the pick up and drive to a prepaid shipper to be shipped to my customer,while title papers and other necessary documets will be handed over to my agent at the time of pick up. Please Confirm this and provide name,address and phone number for check payment to be delivered to you via fedex courier . Thanks and God Bless.
