Anatomy of a scam

Post by keith »

A little light reading you all should be interested in.

I put this link in a reply to another post as well. I was thinking about putting this in the cars for sale section but it really isn't a fit for that area, even though it applies.

I'm sorry, you got to be dumb as a mud fence to living under a rock to fall for anything like this.

@ emmahumpfritter -
"dumb as a mud fence" - too funny! That's a new one for me, and I've been around for longer than several member's combined lives.

Reading the article - what the heck is "the car is in an eBay Motors container?" I frequent eBay Motors several times a week, looking at bucket list (unobtainable) cars and have never seen that term.
