FYI: Never respond to any of these bogus scams, especially if they have a "click here to remove me from the mailing list" link. That link does a variety of things, the least of which is confirms that your email address is a "ripe" one. Gotta love those Nigerian scam artists. They are the best in the business at forging bank documents and sucking money out of bank accounts with only the basic information provided by the victim. They are also experts with identity fraud. Never give them a real mailing address. The first thing they do is then submit a change of address request to the post office and then your mail starts getting forwarded directly to them. All they need is one major credit card statement and then they make a request for "replacement" credit cards and BINGO! there goes your credit rating. Remember the kids book: "If You Give A Mouse A Cookie"? Well in this case its "If You Give A Nigerian Scam Artist An Email....he'll then ask you for a bank account number....

I had sort of the same thing happen a few months back involving someone in the Netherlands that wanted to buy some Johnny Lightnings I had for sale, but he wanted me to send him my banking info because he said thats how they do it there. I said um, no, so he had some guy in CA send me a MO for the cars. Nothing ever came back, so I am guessing it was a legit transaction.

I had that exact e-mail around about November time. When I had a car for sale on Ebay. I knew there was somthing up, Because I had read about this scam, Or one simular on camaros.net.

I think its sad realy, Because now its going to make it harder for *lagit* buyers overseas to buy a car, With out people assuming it could be a scam.

Just got an e-mail from a fellow named Sreenivasan and he is overseas. He is inquiring about a vehicle that I have for sale. I just hesitate when I hear from someone overseas, I have received similar e-mails with other names and they always sound the same. The main question they ask is "what is the lowest price on your car".
