If you receive an email like this, delete it immediately and don't open any attachments.

Things to look out for:

• Poor spelling, grammar and punctuation.
• Generic email addresses.
• Talks mainly about price, payment and delivery. Not overly interested in aircraft details.
• Uses titles to attempt to gain credibility. Doctor, Captain, General etc.
• May represent themselves as a Government official.
• No phone number. Insists on only being contacted by email.
• Buyer asks for bank account details. Never send your bank account details.
• The buyer asks for all transactions to be by money transfer services such as Western Union or International transfers to overseas bank accounts.
• Buyer offers to pay over and above your advertised price.
• Never accept the buyers proof of payment. Ensure money is in your account and cleared before releasing the goods.
