According to my junk box, I make Warren Buffet look like a guy on the street washing windows... oh and also Dell is holding around 1,500 laptops for me, plus I now own 3,200 iPads/Pods. But with all that money and technology, I still have a small penis and need drugs to get it up........... hence the ciallis and penis enhancement emails.
A whole lot of dumb stuff going on .... people at ebay bidding on stuff with no real thought of buying anything ... I think there is a lot of people trying to hurt trade in america again ... it can mess an aution up big time when you think you have won ... same thing at amazon dot com ,,,, people trying to buy your stuff with '' no funds ;; a whole lot of it here latley !! i am not an computer wiz ... but i say never fall for these emails ! spoof

Heheh, Ever had fun playing them along?
I make a sport of it and post about it here Elite Computers - Lame Spam Scammers
I have one going right now but haven't posted about it.
This is one I haven't seen, a Cragslist scam.
My housing situation has changed so I have been looking for house to rent and found a 'too good to be true' deal on Craig's.
I put out about 30 inquires for houses to rent today, my first reply for this listing.
Single Family House For Rent
Sure enough it's a scamer but I'm going to play along ;-}

I am interested in this house.
I am moving out on the 30th. Freddie Mac is giving me $3K. I have a big POD here now but it is not big enough for everything in my house. Can I put down a small deposit and start moving what will not fit in the pod over on the 28th and pay the rest on the 1st?
What are the cross streets ?

The Boy Who Never Grew Up
I also think there are people in a high state of inebriation when they bid or are incredibly stupid. I recently listed two old Suzuki Samurais for sale on ebay, one which could go back on the road as a runner and the other a rust bucket strictly for parts. The guy who bid on the parts car and won lives on an island off the coast of Maine. I live in northern Minnesota. This junker could not even be towed, so would have to be trailered. A deposit was due within three days and full payment in a week. Four days go by and I have emailed him asking if he is serious and does he realize MN is the abbreviation for Minnesota and not Maine. Oh he wants it alright and will send me a money order as soon as he gets paid. I know this is not going to happen and ask if he would like to get out of the auction. No no no, he wants it and is going to check on having it shipped. Right. Surprise, it is going to cost more than the junk is worth to have it shipped. Finally he agreed to drop out of the auction when I told him someone else wanted it for more money, which was true. So I wasted a week on this clown who did not know the abbreviation for his own state, the state of confusion I guess. They say it takes all kinds, but I think we could skip some kinds, don't you?

The first generation Suzuki Samurai's are getting quite popular around here. Folks are pulling them out of the woodwork and getting stupid money for them (read a whole lot of $$$).
It has become popular to upgrade them into serious off road vehicles, usually at a cost that one could never recover if they were to sell it after the conversion.
