    Scammers

    I tried to sell the back seats from my 02 HD and a scammer tried to pass me a false check, and not only that, I wanted $550 for the seats, he sends me $2500 and wants me to send the rest to him, OH PLEASE, I'm not that stupid SO WATCH OUT PEOPLE, THEY ARE OUT THERE.

    Should have told him that your bank rejected his payment and have him send you postal money order. If they fake that, its some big problems!!!!!

    I have had many people try that with me...its amazing what some people will fall for.

    I have been getting that same one to my email address for about 3 weeks now for the longtube headers I have for sale.

    I have been using a gmail account to respond that I created specifically to respond to scammers and putting in the information for known terriorists that is available online!!!!

    I'm getting the same thing!!!
    they want to send a check higher than asking price & have me pay back a "private courier" the difference.
    YEA RIGHT!
    i'm glad we are all a little smarter than that

    I usually reply and have them send it to the Sheriff's office or the FBI address. I'd love to be able to get ahold of a virus and send it to all of these idiots, give them a taste of their own medicine....
