Type of a scam Online Purchase

I posted a Car for sale on Autotrader. I received a text message from the above phone numbers asking about my car and asking me to email the person at [email protected] I sent an email and later received an email from Seth Erickson, who had the same email address as jeannette3, stating that he wanted to but the car for his father, but that he (Seth) was in the US Army and was deployed to Fort Huachuca in Arizona. He could not call as calls were restricted, but that he would pay full asking price by paying through PayPal and a mover will come and pick up the car. He later asked me to set up a PayPal account and to send him the email used for the PayPal account. I reasearched this and determined it was fraudulent, so I did not pursue the matter with the perpetrator.
