[QUOTE="bobberboy, post: 144085, member: 1417"] When I sold my boat I got the same deal except I got it every time I made a change to the ad. It always happened the day I submitted the ad so the scammer was just watching for new posts. I never did figure out the angle though. My guy wanted to send me a check to pay for the boat and the shipping - like yours, he was too busy to attend to the details himself. The email said I would get the check to cover everything and a shipper would show up. It's a pretty silly attempt. It's the same kind of deal when my dear lost relative wants to send me the millions I've inherited from somewhere in Nigeria. Man, how stupid are people if that kind of come-on would work? The gene pool must be murkier or shallower than I suspected. [/QUOTE]
