My daughters father had a similar response months ago regarding an old
glasstron boat he had for sale. He responded and ended up recieving some
moneys that someonw took the time to fedex to him overnight. They arranged a
time for the "buyer" to have the boat picked up a few days later, before
attempting to deposit them he took the money orders to Wal-Mart (since that's
where they were purchased supposedly). Turned out they were fakes and the
originals had been cashed months before. He ended up handing them over to the
police and kept his boat.

answer it.

The weirdest thing just happened to me. I just got a phone call asking me if I
still had those radios for sale. I said-what radios. He said the Midlands. I
asked where he saw the ad and he replied in the Globe on Monday. I sold those
radios to Pandy Andy one year ago and even then, they were not advertised in
the Globe. If anyone has an explanation for this, please let me know. I think
I'm being had. Bernie
