Yep, These guys absolutely S-U-C-K I get this one alot - we will provide a cashiers check immediately. It really makes me mad that they just keep sending emails until someone bites, and they will - Sometimes they forget and send me the same crap a month later. Another one I get is I am a buyer and my client is very interested in your KDX etc etc. I always email these people back and tell them to F - OFF.

Yet another is the I need help my father died and his money is in a secure account - BLAH BLAH BLAH - Last time a chick sent me that I replied " OK I will think about it but I have to have a photo of your boobs first - some men will do anything for a great set of t!ts" unfortunately she never wrote me back :( Dam and I was really gonna help!
