NIGERIAN 4 1 9 old scam/fraud still going around, trying to take advantage of paypal account users. I just experienced it myself today, luckily, i was diligent in my verifications and did not get taken advantage of. I googled the erroneous email address and was alerted (Thanks again Mr. Google). I advertised some used cell phones online (to sell them). sandrajones1982@gmail.com contacted me to purchase them, said she was in Germany at a conference meeting but wanted phones sent to nigeria. Flag went up right then. but i wanted to see how far they would go. She sent an email saying the money was deposited in my paypal account, i tried to verify it but no deposit was made. i called paypal long distance too.. I was smart enough not to use the links contained in the email verifying the deposits (those were fake too).
Here is the address. lanre fasuyi, No.89 Sapon Street, Abeokuta, Ogun State, Nigeria 121101 +2348076513380 also use No. 10. I looked on scamshield.com and found the same exact scam with the same names and addresses. BEWARE
