Heads Up Warning!!!

[silvertonguedevil]

I just wanted to let everybody know there are additions to the Nigeria scams that are going on. I don't know if anyone here has experienced any of this or not but I was selling a car on ebay. I recieved an email from a guy that stated that he was a "car locator". People would come to him to find cars. His "client" lived in Nigeria. He had told me that his "client" was interested in the car that I had listed. He wanted to purchase it but wanted to make sure he could trust me. He told me that he would be sending a cashiers check or money order for the full balance for the car, his finding fees and the money that would be necessary to ship the car the Nigeria. I would need to cash the check, hold out my purchase price and then wire the excess money via Western Union. I received the cashiers check today and something just didn't feel right. I was also warned by other board members about this. I called the bank that the check came from (Southern Bank out of North Carolina) and they stated there were over 200 of these fraudulent checks they were working on. Luckily, no merchandise or money exchanged hands. But the only other thing that kinda sucks is these sh!theads have my home address and cell phone numbers. Kinda freaks me out. Anyway, just watch for anything even close to this. You never know. I was almost had. Just a heads up!!
