To get that seven figure Nigerian cheque you must first anti up that Canadian 5 figure certified cheque.

I have received the offer on more than one occasion.

It's obvious this is a scam, but I'd say a local one.

The writing is obviously from a French speaking person,
and the reference to Les Pacs is something only a Quebecer would know.

The phrasing "letting me know that you still have the item available "
is a dead giveaway that he's physhing for any sucker.

The contradiction of Alberta and ZIP code just shows that he stole the idea
from US scammers and didn't bother to proof-read the text.

As for how the scam works, the money order is a fake, but it would take
any banks a few days to discover that, and meanwhile the guy comes over
and picks-up your game .  By the time you figure out that the money order is bogus,
you're screwed...

Scam, scam, scam...

Wekk I have someone offering the BK backglass i n England for $250 shipped to the point where he needs my full name and address for shipping. Didnt ask for the money yet. Should I give real address/fake name?

My signature on my email says Warren, so it cant be too obvious.
