Got a good email yesterday.Ive got a old Nova for sale on craigslist,and got a email from a women that said she wanted the car, and would be over right after work to get it .But wanted me to get her a quote on the insurance.She said she was at work and could not use the internet ,and supplied a link to the insurance company.I did not click on it,but im sure if i had it would have asked me a bunch of personel information.I tried to email her back and tell her i was not going to be scammed,but it came back undeliverable!!!

I had a car on Craigslist for sale. Someone e-mailed me that he lived in England and would take the car. He said he would send me a cashiers check for 4K over what I was asking. I should wire him 3K back and he would let me keep the extra 1K for my trouble. I e-mailed him back that when his transport driver showed up with cash in hand, the deal would be completed. I never heard from him again.
