That sucks. Did the money reflect in your account before you released the goods?

You say yes, but also no so let me repeat the question: did the money reflect in your account before you released the goods?

no it did not but the message from the bank in the sms said its in,I called the bank adn they said the sms is from them,I also called someone else to confirm if its legit and she said yes.Then i asked the bank how long will it take to reflect and they said 2 hours to 36 hours.
I am not worried anymore,i got scammed good.I cant do anything about it,I did get a new laptop.

Hi XXXXXXX, I would like to buy this item as a surprise for my cousin and can you assure me it's in good condition. What is your final asking price and do you have a Payoneer account so I can make the payment now? Also be informed that a pickup agent will be coming for the pickup once I have made the payment.

Told him where to go...

I am so grateful for catching your post. I just got a reply on my sales ad from this exact person, and politely replied that I require more details and do not have a Neteller account, but have Paypal. And then something told me to check for possible scam. Reported the email as spam and phishing to Google.
