I just ignore them. May be some people are really getting ripped by these asshats.

Yep best to ignore them.

Don't reply, as most are spammers as well. They'll happily sell your valid, communicating, email address to 10,000 spam groups if you don't participate in their fraud.

Tell them there's a 150% tariff.

Anybody who even thinks about selling to someone in Indonesia needs to be shot in the foot.

Hello,

I just want to ask if you can ship to Africa(Nigeria). And also to know the method of payment you may accept. Kindly give me the detail and condition of the computer and their price as well. I will be waiting to hear from you Soonnest.
