Camera Abeokuta, NG

Figured it's too good to be true it usually isn't!  They were going to pay me an extra $100 for shipping.

Then when I realized the country it was going to go to I knew it was a joke. 

Earlier this year I had someone respond to me and I told them to get a real job and they never

emailed again!  Anyone want to buy a 35 mm camera!

Good catch (i.e. NG = Nigeria)... you can read more about Nigeria Scams at the thread here:

Also, for future reference, do not even bother to reply back to scam emails, as you will end up getting on their email lists and receiving more spam.

 

Send any spoof/phishing/fake emails to: spoof@paypal.com and they will investigate.

 

Thanks for sharing your story!
