i got a message from this JERK
I have since receive the confirmation from my secretary  that the payment as been issued out and was mailed by the United Parcel Service.It will be delivered to your address a day from now according to the courier ,but to my greatest surprise the draft was issued out to the sum of $2125 instead of the actual cost of my purchase . She claimed that i requested for that amount to be issued out to you  but am very sure i only made a request for just the cost of my purchase.This is a terrible mistake and i was just informed about this so please once  the check is delivered  please take it to your Bank and have it cashed

You will then deduct the cost of my purchase  plus an extra $100 to offset the cost of your run around expenses.The rest of the fund should be sent to my mover  via western union the same day you  receive the payment so that my mover  can make the trip over for the pick at once. **I will need your immediate response via email assuring me  that i can trust you to handle this with utmost care and  have the remaining fund returned appropriately as requested  and will hope that your intentions remains noble though out
the duration of this transaction**

I told the guy that I would cach the check but would wait until it cleared to refund the money or he could send me a new money order. what a [***]

Oh my! I am sooo glad i looked this up because i received pretty much the same e-mail, but from Alvin Richardson (<richardsonalvin123@gmail.com>):



Thanks for the prompt response and i will love to make an instant purchase. My Office will be mailing (overnight) a certified check from my account to cover the cost, while you hold on my behalf. Once you have this, my mover will come for the pick up at your place.
      I will be needing the following information to issue out the payment . . .
1.Name to be on the check
2.Home address
3.Telephone
      Please note that the payment will be overnight by my Office to your address and its bound to be delivered within 2 to 3 days. I have taken a close look at the advert and am completely satisfied, i really need this and would appreciates that you help save this till the payment  arrives. Furthermore do remove the posting as am definitely buying it from you and it would be sad  for me to have the payment in the mail only to be alerted it as been sold when the check does arrives. Am A Respectful Buyer On CL,
Regards.
Happy holadys
