i deserve crap for selling a ps3 at a profit via craigs list but this is what i got today:
Thanks for your response..,
I will be commencing with payment through BidPay
Account.
...So i will offer you $1,350.00 ..for the auction to be closed.....
How BidPay Works: BidPay will approve but if the payment is sufficient, they will automatically deny the payment if the money in my account is not sufficient and the payment will be mailed to your address as soon as BidPay Approves it.
Note: kindly get back to me with your full name, address, phone number .. so, that i can order BidPay to proceed with the payment....
And i will be sending you a fed-ex pre-paid shipping documents.
As for the shipping, i will be responsible for the shipping to destination. Uppon Approval of payment...
Thanks And Best Regards




should i send my address to get a fed ex lable that i apply to a box of rocks to send to him??

i think i dont want to mess with them but that is just me. tempted to send a huge box of rocks though...
 
and i recognize that it isnt nice to sell ps3 for a profit online but that is capitalism. if you wanted to wait in line you should have.

You think they are going to fly in from Nigeria to get back at you?

Rent a PO Box for a month. If you are that gung ho on scamming the scammer
 
What's wrong with selling a PS3 for profit online? Supply and demand, if people demand it, supply it, for lots o monies 😀.

So? You really think they're gonna fly down from Nigeria to your house (let's say this guy works alone, he'll spend $1000 to go from Nigeria to your place?) to kill you/hurt you/threaten you (which will probably land him in jail, or if you're a gun fanatic, dead) to get back to you for wasting maybe $100 of his hard scammed cash?

I think not 🙂.

Actually, you can usually only rent it in 6/12 month intervals.
 
Some of the best stuff I found is at http://thescambaiter.com This guy sent a stove, washer, dryer, and refridgerator to one scammer. The dude had to pay over $6000 in shipping.

He made up a laptop company to bait scammers called Anus Laptops

Anus Laptops....
Put your business in our anus.
 
I put my laptop on ebay on Friday and I got 3 scammers in 2 hours...I'm messin with one, almost got him to send $4000 for it...lololololol...I love this stuff...😛

LOL @ ANUS laptops: "Size does matter when it's an ANUS."

A better one would have been "Cram your junk in a ANUS" 😀

No it wouldn't.

No but he might just have you kneecapped, and if where you live is anything like where I live, that can be done for about $200.
 
Go to www.419eater.com and read the forums. It is NOT SAFE to mess with them once they have your personal details. Drop him like a hot potato, and tell him you sold it to a neighbour already. They may not live in your neighbourhood, but they may have friends who do. Remember, these are career criminals you're dealing with.
