    I'd be more concerned about the grammar. It would appear that the dodgy has assumed a dodgy name too.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    I'm very interested in your truck and I'm able to buy it in the next days. Since I have a slow Internet connection I cannot see properly the pictures.
    This grammar appears to be from a non native English speaker , and appears to me to be either Asian or Middle eastern.

    I don't know whether "Mark" is included in the Chinese permissable name book but I have not met any Chinese with the adopted name of Mark.
    Mark and the grammar do not seem to match.
    I don't know what that means but to me is a red signal.

    Regards Philip A

    A request for original pictures is so that a scammer can use them to create a genuine looking ad and hopefully get a sucker to part with some dosh. Ignore this respondent, the right purchaser will be able to see enough to work out that the vehicle is what he wants.

    Most likely a scam, I have sold a few cars over the years on gum tree and got all sort of B. S. Email and SMS messages in return!.. If you respond saying that although you are not accusing them of being a scammer, you have forwarded a copy of their email to the police fraud squad in your state to verify it is legitimate and not a scam!....If it is a scam I will almost certainly say you will never hear from them again lol!
