Found Macbook on Kijiji Calgary so I email couple owners. One said he moved to Ontario and asked me for my name and eBay account. Another sent me the following.
Anyone purchased something online this way before??

I am in a military base now , Canadian Forces Base (CFB).Is located in Southeastern Alberta,approximately 50 kilometres north of Medicine Hat and 250 kilometres southeast of Calgary.
I hope you can understand that we will have to stick to email for now.

Obviously we need a safe way to complete this deal.The solution is a worldwide third party company called CLICKANDBUY (www.clickandbuy.com) ,they will provide assistance in handling the payment and delivery of the laptop .
With this procedure you will be able to check the laptop before I receive the payment.

I will send you more pictures with serial number and other important information .If you are interested all you have to do is to send me your FULL NAME,ADDRESS and I will start this transaction A.S.A.P .

SCAM!! It's just variation of your typical scam about not being close to meet up and other garbage. It's meet up or GTFO
