You'd have to be REALLY desperate to even think about cooperating with these scumbags.......

I'm not planning on co-operating with them. Just thinking about how I can scam the scamers! |

You're obviously not stupid so this might seem obvious but I'd suggest as a minimum that you don't give them any personal information and certainly don't send them any money. I doubt any scammer will want the bother but I guess it's possible they may have some way of getting back at those who string them along. Otherwise, I would do exactly the same as you for curiosity's sake. Be careful and let us know what happens. |

A lot of their victims start out thinking like that... just remember they've had an awful lot more practice at being a conniving dishonest scumbag than you have. |

I spoke to the police to see if they could do anything. Their response was that this crime happens too much for them to anything. Well, that makes loads of sense! "I'm sorry sir, we're not going to investigate your wifes murder because there's been too many people killed this month" I'm going to call the fella saying I can't get to the bank (for whatever reason) to pay in the draft, and could he arrange another method for transfer of the funds. Tee hee. |

hi just so you know if you pay a forged cheque or bankers draft into the bank its you who is comitting the crime not the people who gave you the cheque. you could keep stringing them along if you want but surely you have better things to spend your time on. also if you are that desparate to get rid of your moth just put it on ebay someone will buy it.

Electronic, bank to bank transfers are the only form of payment we accept. Under £5000, I will take cash from the buyer, face to face. Even that can be iffy. If you have time, have a look at www.whatsthebloodypoint.com Also, here is a guy trying to sell his 59er http://www.whatsthebloodypoint.com/mails.php?scamno=11&m ailno=1

oooh and another one. Harold Kewell this time, wonder if he is a relative of the footballer Real trip up on this one apart from the standard freight forwarder rubbish, was that he wanted to know the mileage Polite message sent back advising him to look at the website just to get an idea of what he was trying to buy, just before telling him to p*ss off. |

and the freight forwarder would sort out the DVLA paperwork.
