I cannot emphasize this enough. But, I have some ads on the for sale site for steering wheels and a couple Imperials. I am getting the scenario where they want to send me more money than the amount specified. They are trying different emal address, different countries and different ways of how they want me to send back the difference from over payment for the check. I keep telling them, only send the check for the amount, no more and I usually do not hear from them again. I had it happen in the past where the amount for an item was $2,500. and they sent $9,000. and was pleading for me to send the difference to an account because they needed it very bad because of a family death came up and would I please send it as soon as possible. It must be made known of the various ways that they keep coming up with all, even ways I have not heard of yet, to question anything and wait for the bank to completely clear. I had one check take almost 6 months and the party kept begging for me to send the difference. It finally came up no good. I can't believe it would take that long, and it was from a Bank of America account, that did not exist. So please, everyone, stay alert, question all transactions and only take a check for the exact amount, then wait for a solid clearance of the check. Joe Machado
