This actually happened to me(exactly what sux2me explained). I was selling a computer on Ebay and a guy from Nigeria bought it. He gave me like $6000 for a $1500 laptop and told me to send the rest to him via western union. He then asked me to overnight the laptop to Lagos Nigeria via fedex, it was some ridiculously large sum like $300.

So I decided to play it safe, I waited for like 5 days for the cashiers check to clear(well, funds were available). Then I wired the money and sent the laptop. I gess the good thing was that I had the guy's name and address(he needed to show picture ID to pick up the money). Then a few days later the bank calls me and says the check was a fake. I was like WTF, fucking gayass bank. Then I just kinda let it go since I didn't wanna get screwed with some Western African Mafia and end up shot... =/ and I didn't really need the 4.5grand anyways...

Yeah, the guy is still talking to us. He called us 1:00AM to talk about the refund he wants. He just sent us more e-mails with some of them being lawyers and stuff. We made this guy greedy, but we found out there's nothing we can do 'cause he's in Nigeria. The FBI agent completed all the sentences for my dad when he was talking to him. It has happened everywhere and is still going on large scale. God, only if we waited a few days, but one misconception about the check being clear (just like O_O had) screwed us. Oh well.

That sounds cool, yeah I hate the fact that there really isn't anything you can do, its like getting ripped off by a Mexican cartel, your can't really do much they're basically outside of the law =/. For a few days I was considering an AK-47 + a ticket to Nigeria to hunt down that bitch. Then I figured I'd get stopped at airport security before I got anywhere =/.

sorry i probably shouldnt have bumped this. but i think more people should read this if they havent already. klogon no hard feelings plz. u r not stupid. actually i kinda got really excited when i recieved that email the very first time. but mayb wax was right. i was kinda really paranoid and nerdy. so the first thing i did after i calmed down was to search the content of that email on google. rofl how disappointing. =p

lol

"It turned out he was going to send a $13,100 cashier's check for the car, which he dealed down to $7,100, and we would have to give him back $6,000. We accepted because cashier's checks are as good as cash, so it was no risk to us and high risk for him."

that gets me everytime
