the 3rd line is the originating IP, unless they are spoofing you can contact their isp and have them deal with them or whatever, personally I would tell them you are watching out for scammers and need her to email you a picture of her holding a sing with "HMT Pwns me" on it ;D

tell them you have a complete engine that you want to sell them for $2000 and tell them you want 200 of it in cash before you ship it out.

THey might send you 200$ cash if they think they are going to make 1800 off of your ass.

Re: Ideas for Craigs List Scammer
 
here is my next email back to them. we will see if i can get $100 out of them. i doubt it

the address and phone number are to the local police station and Phil Stubbs is not my real name.

i am getting a lot of interest in this part so i ask that you make a deposit on it. please send a $100 to my paypal account (Sales@EvansPerformance.net)so i can hold the part for you. i get a lot of people wanting to buy it. people ask me to hold it till they can get here and then never show up. if you do not do that, i cant guarantee i will still have it.

Thank you for understanding,
Scott

lol just as shady as the ------- scammer :P

So do these dipshits actually send a shipping company to get the parts? I've never understood how that worked. When they're trying to "buy" a car from someone and they find someone dumb enough to go along with it, does a company actually come and pick the car up? ??? I'm trying to figure out how these assholes profit from this.

Re: Ideas for Craigs List Scammer

I had a guy one time tell me he was a pastor in south africa and he needed my subs and amp for an experiment..... these people think that we're retarded O0

Re: Ideas for Craigs List Scammer
 
They won't send you money, unless its a forged cashiers check or something. I had them contact me to say i was an heir to some african dynasty or whatever and all i needed to do was set up an offshore account for them to wire the money to and give them the account number. I spoke with the guy several times and explained that he needed to send me 100,000 in cash so that i could open an account ( and made up some ---- about laws requiring a minimum deposit, etc) but i never heard back from them after that.
