Exact same message on gumtree. Strung her/him along for a bit and suggested they can buy the same at a much lower price new!
then found this!

Caller: Linda Lasher ; llasher48391 @ gmail.com

Still scamming with exact same email

I got two message via Gumtree that arrived at the same time. One from Jessical and one from Yui101 (Theresa Benson) and that set off the alarms as both were only just after posting. One to get you interested and one to add a bit of pressure because someone else is looking, maybe.

The email address for Theresa just didn't gel with the name, which set off another alarm. The story set off another alarm so I didn't hand over accounts but set up paypal while doing some checking.

Googled her email address and found this site. Her message, below, was the same as some of the above. Not informing her of Paypal, or anything further.

Still going to call Flagship to see if they know she is using their name

Same scam as everyone else has had with Theresa, obviously now under a new name of Flegel Brandon Michael. Gumtree seller name was Shawn Landy who asked for my email to communicate off Gumtree (more difficult to flag the conversation to Gumtree this way). Wanted to buy something that was $550, I send my address and a Paypal request, eventually tells me the courier is $1050, would I accept through paypal and transfer the courier money using Transferwise.com.au or steamwallet gift cards? At that point I replied it felt like this was money laundering, and ended the conversation. Then I goggled the company name (they're all living on the same offshore ship and can't communicate by phone or have access to their credit cards to pay the courier) and found this thread.
Main thing that made me suspicious was that they kept hurrying my replies - they would email "I need a response?". I was busy working, so would check back 10 minutes later and find 2 emails hurrying me. Think this is their usual way of operating to stop people thinking things through properly.

Same story as everyone here, received an email from Theresa benson with the exact same contents about some bullsh*t flagship marine. I almost went through with it, luckily my dad is not as gullible as I am.
