So this is what the guy who I was going to buy the plasma screen e-mails me:


The Tv is still available for sale and in great condition it also includes the warranty which is having 2yrs on it.I'm selling it so cheap becasue I need an urgent payment to take care of an issue I want to assure you of one thing that despite the fact I'm selling it so cheap it is still working perfectly and I have only used it for 2 months. It is at fedex location in Hawaii. Please don't get confused about the TV at fedex location in Hawaii the reason is due to the fact that I almost lost it to a scammer there so I had to instruct fedex to hold it up for me at their office. If you are interested in buying it I'll not be able to receive cash because I'm kinda busy working on a case in Florida right now. All I will need to proceed is your contact info so I can get it shipped to you. As for the payment Money order or Western union will be ok. But, I would prefer you making the payment through western union money transfer because that will be much easier and convenient to me. Once I get the TV shipped to you, I will provide you the shipment label and tracking number for you to confirm it has been shipped. Once you confirm it has been shipped you will send ($150) part of the payment upfront and when the Tv gets to you, you then send me the remaining balance. You can reach me at (xxxxxxxxx) or email me if you are still interested and ok with my terms and conditions.
Thanks

Lol. I'm obviously not going to.

I told him if he shipped first I'd do it.

You would think there'd be department of the police that would pick this up at this point and play it out until the handcuffs are snapped shut.
