Thread Starter | Is this Bogus What would you do? I am trying to sell my SE-1 This is the email exchange I have with a guy hello steve, thanks for the prompt reply.i want to see a pics soon and here is my address jebe johnson 8308 saddler- kroehler rd north bloomfield, ohio 44450-0077 well i can,t tell what bank the chack is coming from.because i want to instruct a friend who is about to pay me the sum($2,300) for my car i sold to him.so i will instruct him to make it payable in your name.then you will deduct the amount of the SE-1 and also shipping cost.and help keep the rest till i come back from my trip.and please is the SE-1 still new.so i want you to send me your full contact address so i can forward it to him in order for you to recieve payment.and please include you phone number. > > I will only take a US postal money order. > I'll have the pics for you today, > Steve > hello steve,thanks for the reply.well a ue poetal money order will be fine so i will tell my friend to send you a us postal money order instead of a check.you did not send your contact address?. regards jebe. How hard is it to forge a US Postal Money order? It sounds very fishy to me. I will not ship anything until the money order clears. I am definately not sending money back to him Steve |

| I say.. dont give out your address.. (part of these scams is also coming to your place and burguling it!) But give him a PoBox.. if you know of one you can access.... get the Money order, try to cash it at a post office... if its fraudulent ring the cops in his local area... the address he gave is for the shipping.. so it must be legit..(to a dergree...) may not BE his address, but AN address not the less. have the pigs check the address out... on the other hand.... If you get the MO and actually can cash it.... Hey... cool... |
