Description

I posted Bike for sale on nextdoor.com. The scammer reach out to as potential buyer. Agreed to pay $330 for bike through Zelle. Post which scammer emailed me fake payment Zelle confirmation with email ZELLE [email protected]. From the email - looks like I have to increase my Zelle aacount lime for which scammer will send me additional $250 and I have to payback once I receive it. Here is the email. """Dear Customer We encounter a little problem while releasing your funds. You have a pending payment of $330.00 USD but we have a problem while getting your account Credited with that amount because the status of your zelle account is not a business user which makes your account has a limit and this amount seems to be above your limit, this will not make us get you the money until you expand your limit. You have to take this urgent step to expand your limit: Contact the last payer of your account Julie Gang to send in an additional payment of $250.00 USD so that your account limit can expand, as soon as this is done, we will get your Account credited with the total sum of $580.00 USD
