Description

"Free" riding lawnmower listed in FB Marketplace. Messaged the person. Was told to email her sister "Sandra" @ [email protected] to get lawnmower. Contacted Sandra and was told emailed back with: Thanks for your interest. The lawnmower used to be owned by my husband who happened to had it August last year before his demise. Now, I am currently moving into a new place and I really do not have enough space to keep it and I do not want to sell it as it is a thing so dear to my late husband. So I decided to give it out to someone who is as passionate as my husband was about it….A lady who first showed interest in the lawnmower didn't show up at the point of delivery when the movers moving my properties tried to deliver the lawnmower to her, so I decided that the lawnmower is going to be with the movers. If you do not mind making arrangements with the movers, I can get in touch with them in order to have them reroute it. I believe this shouldn’t cost you too much fee since the distance can be recovered in a day or two.... Apologies for the inconvenience. Just so you know, I am not giving out a vestige or a waste, It's in a very good condition. Thanks Dr Sandra I asked where the lawnmower was being moved to as I'm willing to pick it up directly. Instead, was told to contact the movers. So, my senses were telling me this doesn't seem right. Went to the site provided and started searching the numbers and actually found another person's posting for a very similar experience but regarding a piano in the Dallas, TX area. This is very clearly a scam and I'm guessing the "moving" company is just a way to give superficial validity.
