I recently had an LT1 engine for sale on Craigslist, and was contacted by a gentleman with the typical greed scam, where he agreed to send me an overcharge of money in return for my product and I was to keep $100 for my troubles and send him back the difference in cash..lol
I honestly dont know how people fall for this type of shit but I played along and had him send the Fed ex to my work address...The funny thing is, Im a police officer and had him send it to the police station..lol!!! Dumbass Nigerian scammer.. If nothing else comes of it, at least I cost him $30 sending a fed ex overnight package to my work..Ha ha!!! I should send him back a package of dog crap just to be a wise guy..
Here is his last email:
