Dear friend I am dr muggaboonga from the proples republic of belgain congo. It is a beautifullle country but sadly there has been a government coupe. I have one hundred trillion bazillion Americal dollars in a belgian congo bank account and I need your help to get it out of the country, in payment for your service I will give you a portion of the funds no less that one HUNDRED trillion squillion quadzillion dollars. Get the idea? This is a pretty common scam, he sends you a bogus cheque for more than the item + shipping is worth and asks you to refund the unused portion, you send him his "change", the bank tells you the cheque is bogus and you never hear from him again. |

If there's any question, can't you just wait the two weeks for the check to clear? When it doesn't clear, you'll know. |
| brained:
I agree witchboard... :) |
| FractalWalk:
I don't get it? All he asked for was shipping info. Where's the scam? |
| FractalWalk:
and in a couple days you find out his cashier's check is bogus . . . he sends you a bogus cheque . . . If there's any question, can't you just wait the two weeks for the check to clear? Cashier's checks don't bounce. That's the point of using them. I don't see the angle. |
