I am trying to sell a aluminum boat on craigslist and I got the following emails from Nigerians.
First I got this. I copied their responses directly from my inbox so the bad punctuation isn't something I did
i can't Read your message at the AD can you please tell me more at [email protected]
So I pretty much copied the add and set it to the email address and I got this response from a DIFFERENT address.
Good to hear back from you. I'm satisfied with the price and the
condition. Presently, i am out of town with my WORLD HEALTH
ORGANIZATION TEAM to raise funds for People Living with Diabetes and i
won't be able to come for the inspection due to the nature of my work.
I will be paying you through PayPal as it is the only Medium at which
i can send Payment at the Moment.if you don't have a PayPal account,
It's pretty easy to set up a PayPal account at www.paypal.com . it's
just a few minutes away from signing up. it's safe and secure for both
Parties and i have been using PayPal to buy and sell for years now
without problems. Pls get back to me with your FINAL SELLING PRICE and
PayPal email so i can proceed with the payment and contact the Pick up
Agent who will come
for the Pick up
I look forward to your Positive response
The only thing this is missing is some foreign royalty needing monetary assistance.
I can't believe people still fall for this stuff.

Inevitably they will get pissed and me threaten to turn me into the authorities. I tell them that's okay and say here's the link to my boss's office ... and put a link to the Attorney General's website ... Funny, I never hear back from them after that ...
