I am selling my old boat and can't believe how many scam artists there are. I got over 10 emails from people who want to buy a boat for someone over seas using certified check. Their stories are ellborate and I am sure many fall for their scams...Just wanted to warn people who are selling. Here is just one example of an email I received:<br /><br />Thanks for getting back to me this time.i will pay the amount you want for the boat. but i will have to pay you with an AMERICAN CASHIER CHECK thrugh my client who owes me the sum of $9,500 and he has agreed to send the CHECK out in your name in which you will cash it and deduct your own $5,800 and help me send the rest back to my shipper through WESTERN UNION MONEY TRANSFER.this remaining money will be used for the shipping of what am buying from you. i want you to get back to me if you think you can help me out with my proposal. if you are alright<br />with my method of payment,i want you to give me the following informations that i will use in making sure the cheque gets to you on time:<br />YOUR FULL NAME THAT WILL BE WRITTEN ON THE CHEQUE,<br />YOUR ADDRESS WHERE THE CHEQUE WILL BE SENT TO,<br />YOUR CITY AS WELL AS THE ZIP CODE AND COUNTRY<br />YOUR PHONE NUMBERS.<br />I want you to know that shipping of this car is not a problem<br />to me.i have my own shipping company that will handle this for me.all i want is if you can help me to cash this cheque and send the rest of the money to my shipper that will come and pick the car for me.if you have any more pictures that you can send to me,please send them.thank you and i will be expecting your mail as soon as possible.<br />Regards .<br /><br /><br />I hope these guys get busted.
