I would like to take your offer, but my wife thinks this is a scam. How can I
be sure that your offer is legitimate.

Hello,
Thanks for the responce and i would like you to know that i do not engage or practice in any scam activities as i am a reverend father and would never hurt my fellow human so i would be able to tell you that banks should be able to make all verification of my payment so from there you can tell if i am legit or not.
Note:kindly get back to me with your payment details if my offer is accepted and considered.
Thank's,
Jeffrey
Dearest Reverend Jeffery,

My wife was convinced... unfortunately, tragedy has hit my home. She was brutally murdered by a band of traveling gypsies last night. Don't fret for me though, I am being consoled by her hotter, younger sister. (If you get my drift.)

At any rate, that is neither here nor there; lets do this.

Please send a certified check to.

My response


Edit: do not google search lemonparty.jpg
So naturally, I did just that, to see what it was. Now I am warning you, do not do it. Trust me on this one. Just don't do it. It is better to wonder what the hell it is, rather than find out. If you ever see a reference to it, just ignore it. You will be sorry if you do. Really sorry. I wish that I had listened. Now I know what you are thinking...but don't.

The extra $$ in the "remaining balance". He wants the money order cashed quickly and wants the "balance" money before Western Union tells the person that the original money order is bogus.
The money order will be in your name to make it easier for you to cash and as soon as you recieve the money order i will like you to cash them then deduct the money for the 1991 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme " and send the remaining balance to my shipper agent so he can contact you immediately for the pick up arrangement at your place.

I know this thread is old, but I found it on accident, as I was searching on-line for the name Jeffrey Aithkens. I got a strikingly similar response to an ad on craigslist. It seems like this guy has been doing this for at least a year and a half. I wonder if he is ever going to get caught. I haven't decided what to write back yet.

Here is the reply:

This is my first post, and I don't know if I belong here, as I am from the southeast, not the midwest. I have a 96 Grand Cherokee with Quadratrack, the always on 4 wheel drive. Does that count?

How about this one I got today:

Hello,I really appreciate your response to my mail I saw your item on
Cl for sales and am seriously interested in buying this if still
available for pick up and am satisfy with the description, condition
and the price but pls i will appreciate it, if you can withdraw the
advert from craigslist to avoid disturbance as you will be receiving
be paying with a Bank Check.I will need you to provide me all this
information to facilitate the mailing of the check.
1. The full name to be on the check.
2. Your mailing address(residential address) please no P.O BOX address
because i want the payment to get to you at your house or your office
address to make the transaction fast
3.Your phone number and the best time to contact you.
***As for the pick up,i will know how to handle that with my mover
that as been helping me to move in my belongings into our home, the
Mover will come for the pick up once the Certified Check has been
cashed and i will like to complete this transaction soonest.thanks and
get back to me with the full info as soon as possible Asap.

And here is my response:

There is only one thing wrong with it, I spilled a bunch of blood in it accidently (and that is a whole other story). I have tried using bleach to clean the whole mess up, it is not just in the computer, it is everywhere. I am trying to make sure that all of the blood is gone so that the police cannot detect it with luminol. It has been drying since yesterday. I immediately unplugged it once I realized that the blood had poured into it, and I have not plugged it back in yet. I hope it has not shorted out. So I am not sure if it will turn on or run at all for that matter. I am afraid that if it does turn on, the cpu fan might spray even more blood everywhere.

Regards
