I'M LOST!! After all these comments, I don’t know what to think anymore... Here is the last email I received earlier regarding the sale of my 206:
I was at the post office this afternoon as agreed.
I also come with good news, I was able to complete the Western Union money order.
Indeed, there are formalities to fill.
I understood that since the beginning of the crisis in this country, there have been several misappropriations of public funds; funds that have been expatriated to foreign countries by officials of this country who had access to Financial Services or through certain responsible persons, not to mention money laundering and the ends to which these amounts will serve (arms purchases, maintenance of rebellions and armed groups abroad, active boycotts, and other actions going against the search for peace ...).
So faced with this, there are controls in place and now a tax that must be paid to the tax service of the BCT
by cash mandate since they have no institution in France, accompanied by a handwritten release stating that the funded Western Union mandate belongs to you and that our transaction is legal and has no dubious end.
But there will be taxes and these taxes are €350 for you and €387 for me that should be paid to the tax service of the BCT
Now I see that it’s not normal that you, who is selling your vehicle, have to pay something..
So what I decided is to add the €350 that you will have to pay to the BCT to the price of the vehicle so I made you a mandate of €4100 instead of a mandate of €3700 because I added €400 to the total amount of the mandate but I want to tell you that I made the mandate and the codes of the mandate are in my possession.
Because we will have to pay the tax for the post office director to give me the question and answer for the mandate to be valid and you will receive it at your home post office in cash within 03 minutes after payment of the tax.
You can check the status of the transfer on their site
www.westernunion.fr
You click on check the status of a transfer and you will see that the references are valid but you cannot withdraw the mandate because the question and answer are missing.
So you will see on the page.
Once on check status you will see three boxes marked
First Name: latta
Last Name: georges
MTCN No: 94********
It’s the name of the post office director since there is a tax issue so the mandate had to be sent in his name.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Mr. RIVOLLET ROGER RENÉ
P.S.: The mandate is for €4100 but the references cannot be cashed because the question and answer are missing for you to be able to get the money because they are waiting for the €350 tax to be able to send you the question and answer.
Please contact the post office director to resolve the situation, you ask for MR GEORGES LATTA, it's 0022509896200
Good reception.
IN SHORT, should I be worried, since I keep the car until he returns to France and I receive the money in cash???
