WTF, who is this guy? (Scammer?)
The weird shady email he sent me about buying a 50 dollar head, then i did a search under his email and it bought this up http://www.67-72chevytrucks.com/vboa...d.php?t=249158
sounds weird to me, anyone else get anything like this?
Hello
I am interested in buying the d16y7 head 50 bucks that you have laced for sell now, and I would want to enquire about the resent condition of the above mentioned, as well as some detail about you. I expect this timely enough.
As for the ayment, I would need you to get back in touch with the last asking rice as I will be paying with a c/e/r/t/i/f/i/e/d c/h/e/q/u/e.
Lastly, lease forward to me your full comany's (or mailing address, telephone and fax) details as I will subsequently refer reaching you through these
facilities.
Yours interestingly,
Ismail Osman

As a genenral rule of thumb, if there are that many typos don't bother, the person may be an idiot that can't spell or something more.

I guess scammers are getting more desperate. I can't believe someone would try and scam for something that is only $50.00 and probably useless to him. Pretty funny.
When I was selling an aquarium I had someone send me an email like that saying they wanted it immediately and that they were going to pay me via an escrow service and that I should ship the entire item to them. The aquarium with rocks, sand and other materials was close to 1000 pounds...
