Strange request...

BoyBurning · Sep 29, 2013

Anyone from the RB crowd who knows and trusts me care to be a PayPal go-between...?

Looking to pay for something, seller won't take a BACS payment, and I'm not PP'd up at present...

Idea being you pay them through PP, and I get the money into your account by BACS.

Nothing dodgy, and I'm sure one of you must trust me enough!

It's a UK based transaction.

Thanks,
BB.

I got screwed by Paypal and whenever I have won I have always requested that anything Should be paid by cheque or direct bank transfer. I have never had a problem of been denied due to the fact that the person wants the cash fore the goods are sent. The people I have dealt with on RB have been excellent and very honourable .

How much are we talking? I may be able to help.

Odd that they won't accept a bank transfer, being as they're arguably far less hassle than a PP transaction.

alot of people are naive and think if they give thier acc no and sort code, you can rob them.....but all you can do is put money into thier account! modern day paranoia!

Thanks guys for both the posts here and the PMs.

I have decided not to pursue the transaction, but I appreciate the offers of assistance.

Cheers,
Tom.
