I know it has probably been covered before.
After a scamming attempt on my motorhome sale I have now received a call from someone in France. An English person who has supplied a French landline number and their email address.
Very interested and has offered an acceptable price ( without viewing) Alarm bells !!
They would like to travel over next Saturday and make a Bank transfer to bank of my choice. They say they are with Halifax and the transfer would take about four hours to clear and are happy to wait.
I thought the only transfers able to fully clear in a day were CHAPS that need to be done on a business working day.
Obviously the vehicle will not be released until I am 100% certain the funds are clear.
We are talking £19,000 so not an insignificant sum.
Any thoughts .
Thanks
Graham
