<prompt> Human: Greetings redditors, I am currently attempting to sell my car and have had someone contact me that seems like a serious buyer. This guy is purchasing my car with the intention to ship it to Dubai for his son. He is also busy working on an offshore drilling platform so im unable to meet him in person.He said that he will make the payment before sending an agent from the shipping company to come help me complete the paperwork before shipping the car and i have made it clear to him that i will not release the car to the agent before receiving payment in full. He agreed and was generally very understandable.Problem is he wants to make the payment through paypal. I have used it in the past but am not very familiar with it. Im just concerned that once the car has been shipped that he might open a dispute or something that might prevent me from getting the cash.I would like some advice on how to handle this. Is there a way that I can ensure my money is secure before releasing the car to the shipping agency?Many thanks in advance.  <response>: Dont do it, its more than likely a scam. Never use PayPal for this sort of thing.
