<VV> Overseas Car Sales Scam ?

[Charles Lee]

Has anyone rec'd an email like this ?

I'm selling my 'Vair through the VV Classifieds, and I get this email from
someone claiming I have a buyer in England.

The catch is that I have to pay for the shipping first.  Right !  OK, where do
I send the money ?  To a PO box, you say ?  Oh, OK.  How much ?

Anyway, here is the email I got :

The kicker is the UPPER CASE LETTERS for the <your words go here> part, so
it's obviously computer generated.

Have you gotten an email like this ?

Just curious and FYI,
