________________________________
Hi, I have sent Your payment and I expect You to have an email
from PayPal for confirmation, I will suggest you check your PayPal
email in-box or Spam email folder for their emails.I want you to know that i
added an extra fee of $500 to the total payment which I need you to
help send to the agent coming for the pick up and it needs
to be sent via western union or any Wal Mart store via Money Gram
as that's the only way My pick up agent can get it. I am sorry i should
have informed You but I only got the urgent message from the pick up
agent that They will need the funds before They can
come and pick up when I was about making the payment.I have notified
PayPal of the procedures so there will be no problem.I also added $100
for the western union charges.Please help Me to send the pickup agent
fee to My pickup agent and get back to me if there's anything You need
to know more so I will need your home address for the pickup of the
item.Below is the pickup agent information...
