Carefully. Make absolutely certain who you're buying from!

If it's a wire transfer, then it's pretty fool proof. Just make certain it's a money wire transfer and not a deposit. If he's adamant about escrow, then you pick the service.

Unless he agrees to wire, find another buyer.

Your buyer sends a wire transfer from his bank to your bank, it's as simple as that.

Like Mike said above just make sure it's a wire transfer and not a deposit.

You have to go to your bank and request the wire instructions, in my experience it is different than a "direct deposit" type transaction. Don't know about the Phillipines, but a wire transfer is a wire transfer.

Many escrow companies are also frauds set up by confidence men to lull you into a false state of security. Escrow responds we have funds go ahead and ship watch to us. Funds never come. I do not recommend using an escrow company.

Thanks for the reply.
Please i want you to understand this whole process. The Escrow bank is protecting the both of us in this transaction. The payment i have already made to the Escrow bank is irreversible after you have made the shipment. This means that after i have made the payment and you have made the shipment,i can not withdraw the payment from the Escrow bank anymore because you have made the shipment. Now i think you see that the Escrow bank is safe and secure in making transactions. I have already made the payment. Please proceed with the shipment as soon as the Escrow Bank contacts you okay. Waiting for the shipment as soon as the Escrow bank contacts you. This is what he said |

I would walk away from this deal ASAP. No bank wire no deal. You are about to get scammed. Your next thread will be about being ripped off by a buyer who used an escrow company. So better to be warned than later to be told " I told you so."

This scam is so old that I didn't think anyone would try it today.
Find another buyer. |

This looks to be a very high risk transaction. Wire transfer is really the best way to proceed. Why on earth would the buyer already have funds in the escrow account? I would not proceed with the transaction until the funds are sitting in your account.

Pesos? From the Netherlands? Smells very bad. Oh, if you want information on escrow.com, here's who registered the domain name:
Administrative Contact: Abbey, Brandon babbey@escrow.com Escrow.com Inc. 30318 Esperanza Rancho Santa Margarita, California 92688 United States +1.9496353888 Last I checked, California doesn't use pesos either.
