He knows the village that the house is in but not the address and I have now told him that an officer of the Guardia Civil and his wife have now made a better offer, which I have accepted.

Yes, baz1946, I just got another e-mail, saying that he was turning up on Friday with the money. I told him that it does not work like that, he would have to deal through lawyers and that there are hundreds of houses up for sale and someone may want to deal in cash but that was not us!

Yes, I told the 'buyer' that I would only deal initially by e-mail and that is when the replies stopped!

I would deal through my lawyer if any buyer was keen to buy, having viewed the place however this person seemed keen, even though they never asked to view at all (again suspicious).
