I don't know how many people are in the Lake City, FL area, but I was craigslist and replied to an ad for a personal assistant, running errands, buying things for him etc. The guy wrote me back, the email seemed very legitimate, as the emails went on they seemed a little fishy. Finally, the last email he sent me a tracking number and I was supposed to receive a package from Atlanta, Ga and send payment for him to BACK to Atlanta Ga, for some "art" that he bought from a client. As the emails progressed the typing and lettering, being in bold and whatever else changed drastically.

Thats basically all needed to do to complete your first assignment. Very simple instructions. You should deduct the Western Union charges from the money you are sending. So you should let me know the total amount sent after deducting the western union fee.
Will be expecting to read from you this afternoon with details of payment from western union.
Good luck with your first assignment.
Honesty, loyalty and punctuality is my watchword.
May the almighty God bless you.
Mr. Travis Brown.
