I would play along long enough to get the address of the wire transfer address in the UK and report it to Scotland Yard. Send the addressee one dollar.
Just wondering
I've got three ads running at the moment and all three of them have attracted numerous seemingly unrelated inquiries from non members.This is new for me and I'm wondering if others are having the same experience.
One of these guys agreed to pay $500 for my tuner and said he would have his secretary send the check. A while later after the check had had enough time to arrive from the moon, I contacted him to say I hadn't received the check. He wrote back to say that his secretary had accidentally sent $5000 instead and would I send the other $4500 to his friend in the UK by Western Union wire transfer. Since this smelled really bad I dropped the matter. Does anyone else suspect this guy of scamming? It's been weeks now and no check has ever arrived.
