My hubby was selling these rims for $2000. USD, and a scammer from Nigeria with a British accent gave him this story about a third party sending him a check of monies owed to him... Well, third party fedexed the check for the amount of $7000.USD and he'd advise us that he was including shipping cost... Oh, and to keep $200. for the inconvenience, and return the remaining money by check... This check mailed to us was so authentic, with an existing active account info...I was skeptic about the entire ordeal, and didn't think hubby should go on with the transaction... Well days later he deposited into his account, and waited to clear before he disbursed the merchandise... the check cleared immediately... I advised him to give it two weeks before shipping, just in case... Well like I said two weeks later, the funds were withdrawn from his account...
THIS WAS A SCAM!! AND HUBBY ALMOST LOST HIS MERCHANDISE,AND MONEY!!!
These scammers have got some nerve!!
I love how you are messing with their minds, LOL... |
I'm glad you went with your gut instinct! Unfortunatly, the reason there are so many scammers are because so many people are so quick to buy a puppy, or something else that is expensive, and they don't do any research.
