Is this a scam? Does it sound like a scam?


TIA.
Yea, working out at sea as a Somali Pirate maybe. Automatic scam sensor alerts are commas with no space after it, inconsistent grammar and english level throughout, they will use an "agent", they tell you automatically to go setup a Paypal/online pay account if you don't already have one, and they have no access to phone/internet/carrier pigeons but miraculously saw your ad online.
