Hello,

I got your response. Well, I have read through your ad and from what I have seen,it is priced favorably compared to others so I want you to consider it sold to me because I am ready to buy it for the asking price.I am Tech Sgt Elizabeth Lowell currently on duty serving the country.

Presently I am out of town on duty in a remote area . We have a bad and fluctuating network here otherwise I would have called you and seal the deal on phone. At the moment, email and text messages works best for me.

Nevertheless,I am ready to seal the deal right away and pay you via my PayPal account that is attached to my bank account as it is the only secure form of payment that I have access to right now. So,kindly get back to me with your


FULL NAME,PAYPAL EMAIL ADDRESS,PHONE NUMBER so that I can initiate the payment immediately.If you don't have a paypal account, it is absolutely free to set one up, kindly visit www.paypal.com. A shipper will be hired that will come for the pick up upon the completion of the payment aspect of the transaction.Let me have the requested details to proceed with the payment if we have a deal. TY

Sincerely,





My 'retort':


You know......................'Elizabeth'............. .. when running a scam like this whether it be Paypal or some other 3rd party.............................deal............ .. I find it most reprehensible that you 'impersonate' a United States Military soldier while doing so.

What a total piece of **** you are. Bad enough you won't work to earn money, but are so lazy and that you're not even smart enough to know active Military have their own secure network. The dead give away is your 'gmail' converted directly from text message.

If you feel the need to **** someone out of their hard earned money (where they actually worked for it) this Christmas season, try actually putting some effort into the scam and impersonate someone believable like.........................................Obama .




Please rot in Hell,

Dear Elizabeth.

As a gesture of goodwill, please send a picture of yourself with a loaf of crusty bread on your head as you duck-walk through a field of sharp gravel, barefoot...
