I am selling a boat motor and this is an e-mail i just received on it. Does it seem a little fishy or anything?



"Hello,thank you for the prompt response to my enquiry am very much satisfied with the condition and price of the item and i would like to make an outright purchase immediately so i will advice that you withdraw the advert from the web.Pls i will like to know how you intend to procedure on this okay but i would prefer that i issue a certified cheque in us dollars to you location after which my shipper will be coming over for the pick up once you have gotten that.I read through the advert and am okay with it so please i will need both you name and address to post the payment and would appreciate you include you phone#,regards"

Do you ship to Nigeria?

 

[GregW]

Sounds like a pretty typical scam.

 

[vping]

SCAM. Run away, run away.

But i is just wanting to have address to send my shipper to pick up you advertised item before mine bogus check bounces.

 

[MGB7509]

I knew it!!! sorry i think it would be worthless shipping to nigeria!

Oh, and if I make the check for $50,000 extra you send extra back cash ok.
