i saw your advert about selling your car and i will like to know the condition, price, year and the picture if available and everything i need to know about it so that i can contact my business associate in uk to issue to you a certified british cashier cheque as a mode of payment. kindly mail me back asap.

Maybe 1 these companies that tell you they have 10 ppl interested in your car and for £xxx amount they will help sell it for you - Stay clear
