http://newyork.craigslist.org/brk/sys/70037720.html
(sorry but I"m not selling it no more because it's such a cool laptop
heres a quick recap of our conversation:
========
LOW LIFE SCAMMER:
(Typical scam letter)
... bla blab. want to buy u laptop for son's birthday and u send it to nigeria. ..
==========
MY RESPONSE:
Hello, since you are making payment for shipping. I will only charge you for the cost of the Dell 700 Molester (700M) laptop computer
The total cost is $1050 US dollars
my payment information is:
John Ripmedoughoff Chen
Big Chummp Computers
1870 Shore Parkway
Brooklyn, NY 11214
I will send you 700 Molester as soon as I receive the payment
============
SCAM LETTERS:
- a few letter with fake headers saying that there's money deposited in bidpay or what ever bullsh1t and I will get the payment after I shipped the item out to the flucker in Nigeria
=============
MY LETTER TO SCAMMER
The box should be about
45"x20"x30" and weight about 20 pounds the 700 Molester. Are you going to send fedex someone to pick up? When? I have to know in order to be home.
==============
SCAMMER LETTER:
- Sent prepaid shiping label and ask me to drop box off to fedex office
==============
MY RESPONSE:
I know where the Fedex office is but I cannot go there because I have to attend to my business. There is already offers for the 700 Molester laptop from people willing to pick it up with cash, but I am a man of my word since I said I will sell to you and I don't want you to go through the trouble of paying bidpay.com for nothing so I will sell to you. I'm sure your son is eagerly waiting for his Molester.
Just call and have fedex come pick it up. As I was about finish packing the 700 Molester. Just email me back when you have the schedule on when fedex will come over to pick up your son's 700 Molester
.... to be continued
================================================
================================================
can anyone answer these question for me?
- do the scammers get charged when by fedex when they make up a prepaid shipping label with fedex? what about if they send fedex to pick up and they don't find addres or guy not home?
- do they have to pay fees or tax on an item when I shipped it to nigeria and they pick it up? (say taxes on a $2000 laptop?)
I was thinking of making him send me send a fedex box and then give them a box with 20 pounds of rocks or garbage and then the guy will have to pay fee to get the package.
