Re: [RC] beware of this if you have a horse for sale. - Linda Hedgpeth
Yes.......It's the infamous
Nigerian Scam. It is making it's way all over the
internet. I breed and sell boa morphs, we see them hitting all the
reptile classifieds sites.
Hi
everyone. I have a horse for sale in the classified section of this site and
have been contacted by a person who is going to send me a check for 4500. and
pick up my horse sight unseen. If anyone makes you this offer don't fall for it.
My sister was selling a car on the internet and was sent a cashiers check for
it. Luckily she had the sense to have the bank check it out before shipping the
car and it was [the check] no good. This has been happening to alot of people
and the banks are cashing the checks and then finding out they are not good and
the responcibility is yours. You are out whatever you had for sale. I know and
probably so do you that no one buys a horse unseen. PS this person was from
supposedly England. So was the person that was buying my sisters car. Come to
find out it was actually someone in Africa. Just thought I should post a heads
up. Pattie
