Red face Lol

Long time have i seen those ever since i got in the market for a Supra.. man and well i didn't have anyone else advice but what i did Do was Google it... Google will search the whole net for any reports on the supra and the Story there was a site i stumbled upon and it had various postings of scams and the people who fell for them and the amount they lost... i guess they are trying to track the Person (people) responsible for it.. honestly if they find him/her.... i can only imagine.

best way to check for scams is to Research.. and as a 20year old i can honestly say ... all i need is a slight amount of proof to drop the bait. then again i go by many old phrases and sayings. " if it's to good to be true, it probably is"

but hey some people say i got an old soul so, it may not apply to all kids

Default Scams by Scums

I told one of these guys to open an escrow to transfer title at the Chartered Bank of London and have them contact me. It's fun to hear the bullshit reasons they come up with as to why they cannot comply with sensible suggestions.

The internet cafes in Lagos, Nigeria are full of these losers. They do, however, have a degree of entertainment value. Many people enjoy "playing" them.

Default Same scammers different item for sale.

Hey guys! I saw this post and thought it was totally crazy, because just this last week my wife was looking for a particular dog to buy, and found one of these scammers. They told her the buyer had to meet certain criteria; like being christian, have kids, and stuff like that. They also said they had to move to the UK and had to sell their "babies". They even state that they would have the dogs flone here buy a company that takes care of importing stuff. My wife emailed the "shipping co." and they didnt even deal with animals. I will get a copy of those emails and post them for all to see. It's funny because they all have bad grammar. LOL!
