Some of it sounds a bit like EBay...

....."the final buy it now price".....

Should already know what you are selling, as indicated previously, they wanted it...

..."pictures or more description for me to be sure this is exactly what i`m
looking for"......


Nigerian scam? Poor use of English Grammar...

...."daughter who has just been delivered of a baby next week".....


Smells like a dead fish, probably is.
In this case, smells like a phish or scam, probably is...

What ... you cant see a boiler plate response when you see one?

This guy is even to lazy to write an original reply to your ad.
He is using something that would cover a large area and sending it out hoping some sucker will bite.

What should happen is a good old a$$ whoop'n on the crook that comes to pick it up.

I hope no one falls victim to these bottom feeders. Just be careful out there. If they don't have a good callsign and good feedback leave them alone no matter how good the offer is. Please always leave feedback. Sooner or later they're going to get a little smarter in their scams so always be wary...Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving!
