Got another one...scammers by the dozens!
 
I've received more of these than actual interested parties:

1, Is the engine in perfect condition?.

Absolutely. Top notch in every respect. -8% leak down and 5 million pounds per sq/newton compression on all cylinders.

2, How often do you service the car?.

Never.

3, How many miles of the car at the moment?.

A ***** load.

4, are you the owner before placing it for sale?.

What the hell does this mean?

5, If yes, for how long did you use car?.

As long as I had to.

6, has the car been involve in auto accident?

Yes, it's a dreadful heaping rust bucket.

7, what about mechanical defectives on the car?

None that I know of but I've never opened the hood. The engine is in the front, right?

8, your intension of selling the car?

To be rid of it.

9, Are you with the title paper

No, it's a scam. Someone else owns the car. I was just hoping you'd pay me and I wouldn't get caught.

10,Finally what is your bottom price?

One BILLION shilling, payable to me via the fastest courier possible. Why don't you tell your "client" to go out of town suddenly. But, before he goes he should make out a cashiers check for a couple of thousand over the purchase price. Then you can come pickup the car and only after it's gone I'll find out the cashiers check was fraudulent.

So, you don't think he was a serious buyer?

Drago 11-29-2006 11:23 AM

If that's sarcasm it's supposed to be green text.

The one part of the email I left off was that he has a client who wants to buy the car sight unseen and right away!

If I had responded positively his next email would have stated that the "client" had to leave town unexpectedly but he has left this cashiers check for way more than I was asking...you can guess the rest.

Black text is the new green.
