Look out for this guy

"lacky samuel" <shingy_002@yahoo.co.uk>

Can you post the whole story?

Part of a scammer's "identity" is his mode of operation (e-mails he sends out may have a template; he may have a repeating English mistake; sends out fake eBay letters, stuff like that).

He may change his mailbox (very easy actually), but his English is harder to improve; or, having a false sense of security, he might use the same letters from another mailbox. If none of these applies, we'll at least have a good story to enjoy, and acquire a few modes of operation ourselves

Here is his message. I sent him an email back saying I am not interested in selling him this item. This email is VERY OBVIOUS! It has SCAM written all over it
