lol, i did this a few weeks ago, had the bastard going for like 10 days. It was an apartment rental scam where he wanted me to send the deposit and he's send me the keys...said he liked me and trusted me with his place.
The really sad part is that there are too many ******* stupid people on this planet. I want to think they get what they deserve but no, they are too ******* stupid to deserve this ****. It's wrong and the weak need us to help them, so I kept this *** wipe busy for 10 days before I couldn't stand it any longer and asked him what kind f scum he was? I never heard back, wow.
Good luck with your adventure, fight the honorable fight, protect the weak minded and screw that sucker sitting in some hole in Nigeria.

The only way the FBI could even consider doing anything is if the person was in the U.S. but 99% of the time it's someone in another country and the laws just aren't the same around there.
It's just like when someone comes up missing on a Cruise ship. It's owned by a company in another country and traveling in International Waters. There isn't anything that can legally be done.

It is a 2004 Honda Recon is very good condition. Your boss would really like this, I hope we can do business together. Here is a picture of it. Very clean. I want $5000 for it, not a penny less. Is this a problem, if not I will pull the ad if we have a deal. I dont have a phone number currently, but you can contact me at this email anytime. my address is below for you to send the check.

Thanks for the response, I agree with the final asking price of this item. More so, i want to let you aware the payment that will be issued will include an extra money in which i want you to help me transfer to the shipping company for the pick up of the item as soon as you get the payment cashed... So you don't have to border your self about the shipping because it will be taken care of , all you need to is that immediately you receive and cash the check, just deduct your money for the item and send the remaining fund to the shipping company the same day so they can come over to pick up the item on time... Am ready to issue out payment right away so that this transaction can be completed on time..
N:B I HAD ALSO DECIDED TO COMPENSATE YOU WITH ADDITIONAL $100 FOR THE STRESS AND TO REMOVE THE ITEM OFF MARKET AND KEEP IT FOR ME
IF YOU AGREE TO SEND MONEY TO THE SHIPPING COMPANY IMMEDIATELY YOU RECEIVE AND CASH THE CHECK,KINDLY GET BACK TO ME FAST SO THAT I CAN ISSUE PAYMENT TO YOU RIGHT AWAY.

Sounds like a great plan. I am removing the listing and awaiting payment.
