this guy emails me saying close the "auxtion" and lets make a deal. i says ok... im in south africa so dollars are worth a lot more than rands.
he wants me to ship it to a friend in nigeria. i say ok $37 (about R250) once the money clears in my account (checking my balance online) i'll draw it and ship. he says ok im doing on the Online Bank of America or some shit like that. so i start getting all these emails from accountant@yahoo.com saying that $40 had been deposited into my account but the amount will not clear until i send them the shipping code!! um, ok... i need the cash to ship the item. they keep sending me the same emails with fake letterheads and terrible spelling. i tell him no deal. he starts threatening me.
how stupid does he think i am? i fork up the R50 odd to pay for the shipping and them i'm minus R50 plus an mp3 player i paid R300 for and then i never hear fgrom this guy again? how dumb do i look? 4$$h0l3 |
