    got an email today to quote on a full interior for a mk2 jag ………….this is the 1st email

    Hi Folks,

    I need a Full leather trim supply and fit for my 1965 Jaguar MK2 3.4. I will like you to get back to me if you are available for work and do you accept credit card for payment?



    Cheers

    Doyle Wayne


    so I asked for more info ……………………………………………….. 2nd email with pictures of car and interior



    Thanks for the reply Chris,
    I am new in the area, and i work as an Electrical Engineer with Adriatic Yacht Charter presently on Sea, according to company policy this the best way i do communicate and will only come back in couple of weeks. I have attached a picture of my jaguar herein, so the recovery shall be dropping my car at your premises on delivery day, as they shall be coming in with all my furnitures and belongings in the next couple of weeks.

    I shall keep you posted once i have the exact ETA from the recovery, then you can go ahead with the design, leather choice and quote, and we shall go from there.




    and the 3rd email …………………………………….



    Good morning Chris,
    I hope you have had a good start of the day? I have just gotten an email from the recovery and they have confirmed my car will be delivered to your premises on Thursday 20th of September by 11am.. Also i will need a little favor from you today, as i have not paid the recovery for their delivery, i will be giving you my credit card now to put through for an amount of £1700.00 and you keep £500.00 as deposit for your service and have the remaining £1200.00 sent to the recovery via Bacs.. As they had just informed me that they receive payment upfront, I really need you to help me do this today, so we can have them here as scheduled.
    I wish to pay them directly but am sure you are aware that am still on Sea, but because they do not have an EFTPOS facility and coming in from Belfast, there is no way i can pay them directly with my credit card, so this is why i need you to assist me with this today.. Let me know if i can send you my credit card details for the transaction right away..I await your urgent response..



    Kind Regards

    After todays email we asked him if there was some mistake as we had heard that the car was being transported to another trimmers and was being trimmed elsewhere.
