janaka Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Well since I've posted my datsun for sale (without posting an email address in the thread) I have gotten a few scammer emails. I figured I might as well play dumb for a little while. This is one series of the emails I have gotten. I can't wait for his next reply. Little long winded but the punch line is at the very end.

naviathan Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Ok, love the back and forth, but the punch line was a bit 5th grade level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleachZee Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Isn't his mom worth more than that? You could get a fake money order for $500,000 if you wanted to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaggyZ Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I regularly lead those guys on for quite awhile if I get a chance including usually leading [scamming "sellers" of cars usually] into believing I can actually come see the car in person because I'll be in whatever city they claim to be in (though the car is already in a container and ready to be shipped. But on my last one, I "gave up" after about 10 emails back/forth by basically saying "alright, I give up! How can I get into the scam business? Do you have a boss? Are your margins worth the risk? Why is the "eBay Seller Protection" the usual payment handling even though we all know it doesn't exist? Why do you all have the same terrible grammar? Sincerely yours, Josh" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsommer Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 I always tell them to send the check, then tell them I've recieved it and cashed it. Then give them the address of the police dept to pick up the car/what ever and I'll meet them there on a given date. Funny nobody's shown up (that I know of ha-ha), niether have I.
