I was selling a car on yahoo auctions. This, (probably a nigerian scam artist) idiot, did the BIN option. Ok fine, I replied wanting his contact info because that price I had on there was just for that purpose. (a little high for the car in that shape) Well, here was his reply:
Hi.
Thanks for your email i am very Happy to read from you. I am Ready to Buy this Laptop. But i am Going to send a cheques to you and cash it then. I want you to send me your Full name and contact Address with Phone Number. As soon as you Recieve the cheque and cash it You will Just send the Rest of the Money to MY Shipper Agency that will come and Pick it Up Via Western union Money Transfer.

So i want to read from you soon.

If you didn't catch it, he is buying a LAPTOP when I sold him a CAR!!! (If you can fit a 1975 Pontiac on your lap, and live, I'll be pretty willing to negotiate a really, really good price with you!) I am now in the process of trying to report him to yahoo auctions, if someone has any info to speed that process along I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!!
