As most of you probably know, I am advertising Lucille (my '68 Crown) on the club classifieds. We do seem to get quite a few idiots harvesting these ads, as I have received innumerable messages offering (in semi-english) cashiers checks and demanding instant responses. This AM, however, I got TWO messages from THIS particular idiot - one for the "beautiful 1968 Imperial", and the following, which is still causing hiccups and giggles: hello seller ,
l saw the advert in your website,and l will like to purchase the lovely [Rabbits For Sale ]and l am highly interested in buying the [Rabbits For Sale ] l will like to know the present condition of the [ Rabbits For Sale ]and the last price of the Rabbits For Sale ,the payment will be withdrawn from a bank in us,which is the payment will be paid with a certified cashier check that will be from a bank.and my reputable shipping company will handle the shipping arrangement accordingly. l will be looking forward to hear from you soon, bset regards. valentino. This knucklehead must have so little English he relies on canned responses, and a list of car names that confirmed that Rabbits are (kind of) cars! I am noticing a marked similarity in syntax and the use of certain shortened slang terms which indicate that one person is writing scripts, probably selling them to any sap who wants to get into this "business" and can afford to acces internet cafe equipment. As an aside, since receiving two bogus "checks"
those two particular scammers have been silent. Maybe the club member who
suggested leading themon and getting them to expend their resources on printing
and costs was right, and this is the way to put them out of
business!
To get back on topic, if anyone is interested
in Lucille and wants an unbiased source to look at her, I have yet to meet even
one of the local Puget Sound members - feel free to have anybody come out to
look and drive!
