Craiglist Scam : Funny as Hell
I posted a book on Craiglist and within an hour, I get the following. Enjoy!
" HELLO,I am Dr.jeff, checked at your Kurt Vonnegut, Easton Press Signed Limited on craigslist.org and I will like to have the item soonest and I will be happy if you can sell the item to me. Presently I am out of states for a research work on AIDS and HIV. I will have my shipper to come and pick up the item ,once the payment has been finanlised.....ok,Also, I will like you to send me the final price for the item, your full name,address and phone number to send the money order to and for the pick up. Please get back to me through this email account. Thank you and God bless Dr.jef " ![]() |

A few years ago, I got a Nigerian scammer to say that he loves me. It was a lot of work, but it was worth it.
