Bank transfer from India

Your buyer may be referring to the Currency conversion Charges and other bank charges levied on Abroad Transactions.I am not clearly sure about the percentage of amount that the buyer has to pay,bu what i can advice you is,Please contact your buyer and confirm,he can pay you with a credit card.

40% is insane!

As he is already trying to trick, I suggest you to use Escrow Domain Holding service.

You will have a safe transfer!

Utter bs. its 1k INR (approx $16.5) fee for outward tt amounting over $1k.
