There was a nice black Chally in the Atlanta paper last week. $4300.00. Of course, the car was in Oregon..    E-mailed them just playing the game and offered to bring cash for the transaction.  The scammer refussed saying the transaction must go through Yahoo Financial....  lol      :violin:

If it didn't work, they wouldn't be doing it.  Some people ARE that stupid.  I, on the other hand, am about to come into some serious cash from helping the widow of a former Nigerian king, so we all can't be as smart as me...

Thats the truth, a guy I worked with bought a $7000 dollar 69 camaro. 396, number matching restored. He sent the guy the $7000, 2 weeks later guy emails hem tells him car is at the border, broker and taxes are $1700, so he sends that too. Then a month later car still nowhere to be seen.  I was like man, you are plain dumb.   :horse:

You're too late.  I've already sent all my personal info: SSN, bank account numbers, etc.  Just waiting for the money to show up.  Funny, I don't remember ever having met his widow, though...

Nigerian thing must be getting played out, I have now won the National Irish Lottery several times.  Can't wait to claim all my winnings.
