Is anyone that is advertising something for sale on Ytmag's classifieds sections getting odd responses purportedly from England, Norway, etc. to buy your product. They state they want your name/address to send a cashiers check and they will follow up and handle the shipping? Sounds more than a bit suspicious?

Thanks!

I get stuff like that EVERY day. I also get a deal where they want to send me a chashiers note because they are "out of the country", want me to cash it pay myself, then give them the rest of the money. Never even mentions shipping....suckers born every minute....I don't blame them, really....beware to all if you get an E mail like the one I just spoke of..... AC

In the first place, NEVER RESPOND TO SUSPICIOUS EMAIL, it only confirms that your email adress is real. The other thing is ANYTHING THAT SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE...IS. The latest one I am getting has an extra zero on the amount. Ask yourself, "Who is this person and why did they choose me to trust with their hard earned money?"

Hey Let them send you a check. They will get it insured when they ship it and have to pay for the insurance. I found this out on a bad check i got that was suppose to be from england but was from nigeria. Guy went by mike smith
