Hi friends,
I have received an offer for the products Im trying to sell,it is a HiFi system that is about rm 7000, the buyer is from Canada. He offered me a nice deal and he will bear all the shipping costs. According to him, he will pay me with Royal Bank of Canada and wanted to know my account details. He requested me to use FedEx and ship to Nigeria (The item is for his son). I feel something is not right here,I suspect it is a scam or he has other intentions, so I havent give him my bank account details. But how can this be possible right? Is it safe if I give him my bank details?

Of course I will make sure I received the payment then only deliver the items, but he seems very eager to know my bank details. Do you guys think he has other intentions? my maybank account also not much money, less than rm 20 biggrin.gif
