Definite scam. PayPal always side with the buyer. If she pays via PayPal then claims van is not as advertised she'll most likely get a full refund and you'll get a hefty bill from PayPal. Id be looking for cash only, or at a push bank transfer.

Google 'PayPal car buying scam'. You are being setup. A friend got scammed out of a £8k car this way. His insurance wouldn't pay out because he  willingly handed his keys over.

And don't take a banker's draft either, even if they suggest you can go to the bank and get them to check it pays in.

Weeks later it shows as stolen and you're stuffed.

On phone so can't find a link but this is all over the web. Worth a search.

its a scam.
I had an email last year saying i had received a paypal payment of £430 and to click on a link, i didn't, but did go into my paypal account from another pc. The money was not there and its never come, although I still check daily and live in hope lol.
Don't fall for it.
