dhl IS A LEGITIMATE COMPANY WHO DOES SEND GOODS cod. What it does not do is request for funds to be paid by wire tranfer is advance of goods being shipped. I did by best to research it but not until I had lost $300 for the same laptop that is being sold all over the globe. By the same guy and here is the evidence I offer:
MacForums and other sites even in Australia report very similar stories. My scammers screen name is Joseph Mitchell but that group, with almost identical e-mails, uses several others.

I knew better and I thought, okay, he's in London with his laptop and needs to sell it pronto.

Read through the thread to see how it all evolved.

Please keep me posted.

I would need your name and address to start the DHL delivery process. Here is the exact link where the procedure is explained: http://www.airfreight-dhl.com/en_uk/webship.high.html. I will also try to explain everything.
First I go to DHL with the ibook and start the delivery procedure.
After I give them the ibook for you, DHL will send you a notification to let you know the process has been initiated, and that they have the ibook for you and also the complete specifications of the ibook.
Also, in the notification they will send you clear instructions on how to make the payment to DHL, to the DHL agent's name.
After you complete your payment, then you will notify DHL, they will collect the payment and once they have your payment, then they will deliver the ibook to you in 2 days time.
Once you receive the ibook you will have 5 days to test the laptop and if you are 100% satisfie d you will kee p it and, at this point, notify DHL that you are keeping the ibook and that they can send me the money.
In the event that you do not like the ibook you will notify DHL you are not keeping it and at this point the DHL people will come to your address and pick up the ibook and give you a full refund of your money.
So it is simple, I would say.
If you agree to these terms, send me your name and address and I will go to DHL with the ibook and start the delivery procedure.
Please let me know soon.
Joseph

Hi there,
The ibook is still available. You can see its condition on the attached files. I'm in London untill Christmas and since we can't meet I have found a way for us to complete the deal safely and fast, and this way you will receive the ibook in less than 2 days, if you move fast as well. The solution is provided by DHL, and it will handle the payment and delivery of the ibook. It will allow me to receive the payment for ibook only after you will receive it and test it. Price is $300 including shipping. Hopefully we can work something out.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Joseph
