YAET - Oh joy, my very first scam.

just got the following message for my auction

"Compliment,
This is just to make an enquiry about the payment of this item. Did you accept Certified USA check or Money Order as mode of your payment? if yes our client will be sending you an overdrawn check which will incude your item fees, our commission and the shipping fees. So u are require to deduct your item fees and the packaging charges after you might have received and cashed the check . while u are to wire the remaining balance to our shipping company via western union money transfer.So, if you are okay with the payment. kindly forwards all the information for the issuance of the check right away. thanks "

Geez, I guess when you start selling high dollar items, you'll get crap like this.

I'm not suppose to link my item... but it's a set of Barbri Patent home study course that retails for $1800....

I mean, why would Nigerian people need Patent law books for the states? (that's a rhetorical question lol)
