Well I am selling some Stereo equipment in the classifieds, which is part of the reason I beleive this is a scam. Not to mention I receved 2 other emails I beleive at the same time trying to sell software. Not to mention the wording. Here is the first:

Quote:

I would like to buy your 2 jl audio 12w3 DVC subwoofers with no damage history and nothing over few years old please must be cheap Thanks. Is the price $900 not negociatable.so do get back to me via this email



The second:

Quote:

Thanks so much for your prompt response back to me, well now that you have made your intention known to me regarding the condition of the Jl audio Speakers & ppi amp w/ 1 farad capthat you have for sale known to me, I will be sending you a Money order of $900 that will cover the price of the Jl audio Speakers & ppi amp w/ 1 farad cap, which i shall arrange as the mode of payment as soon as you forward your name and address of the receipant of the money order which will only take you a day to cash. am very sorry for any inconvienences this might cause.

I awaits your urgent response over this.




What yall think? Anyone know a Mike Rymer? My response to the first email was do want just the speakers or the amp and the cap.

Tell him POSTAL money orders....they limit the amount to $500 each(I think), so he would need to get two. I wouldn't trust any other money order if my life depended on it. But with the way he is typing I would think that it is a scam...anyone who types like that normally doesn't know the language very well to know how we actually "speak". A lot of scams are very, how shall we say it, "proper" in the way they type.....a little too proper.

Mike Rymer needs to go to scam skool! I don't trust a person that can't spell with money. I bet he can't count too.
