Usual overseas scam, unreal prices, only accepts Western Union, some times a taken over payPal account.

Just be careful of overseas offers they are usually not authentic.

I received an email today from this scammer,, wow if only that deal exhisted I would be super happy.

Just a heads up to my friends here.

F5TLF it is nothing more than part of the scam. If you send them money you will be out that money also. This has been tried before and those who have done it are now that much poorer.

I can't for the life of me figure out how you guys are so good at spotting these scams so quickly. What do you look for. I would think this was all legit. How easily I could be separated from my money if it weren't for watchdogs like you all. Thank you so much.

For all overseas transactions only pay by a protected method like PayPal using a credit card and never Western Union.

In reality due to many exchange rates it is not really echonomical buying from overseas.
