    Can you say MONEY LAUNDERING!?!?!?

    This is an email I received about 2 hours ago on an auction of mine...you decide.

    Hello,
    I will like to buy this item for $2500.00,
    I am intersted to buy this item and i will like it to be ship to Holland in Europe.
    To make the payment more faster and easier, i am especting the sum of $9,500.00 from a company
    in US. i will ask them to send you the amount($9,500.00) But as soon as the cheque clear you will send the remaining money to me by Western Union in europe.
    Also i will like to let you know that i have my own shipper that will come over to your address and pick it up as soon as the cheque clear.
    If this is ok with you, kindly email me back on (@hotmail.com).
    Also email me the name and the address to appear on the cheque and your telephone numbers, please dont email me p.o.box address, because the cheque will be send my fedex courier services and fedex does not deliver to p.o boxes.
    Till i read from you.
    Williams.

    It is a scam Kimmer. They get you to ship the item. Send the extra money to them and then you find out the check is a fake. I seen this many times. I personally would agree to it. Then when the check comes give it to the police/FBI and let them catch the arse wipes. Don't end your auction early though. Tell the idiot you will end the auction only after the check arrives. Then don't do it then either. lol

    Selling to only "americans" won't protect you from a potential scammer...

    can you say MONEY LAUNDERING???

    I'd say DEFINATELY a scam. I'd agree with the others. Tell the guy you'll do it then turn them in. Think of the people that fall for the crap.

    I was joking about only selling to americans....LOL. Anyways, who in the heck would send someone $7000 extra without even knowing the person. If he does send me a check, I'm keeping all of it. Nothing he can do about it, because the check would be in my name. LOL. I don't think anyone would be stupid enough to fall for this....I hope.
