(IMG:style_emoticons/default/finger.gif) I posted a perfect set of heat exchangers for sale on this list and got a reply from Mark Grillo. He is trying to scam me by "sending a check for $4500" and I am to "send the balance" back to him in US curreny. This is a scam, usually from Nigeria, but currently from UK. Beware anyone selling parts to this person.

This scam is rampant. Just say no to anything but cash or a check for the asking price.
Also, beware of the call me back at (xxx) xxx-xxxx. Its a scam as well. They'll tell you they're calling from San Diego or somewhere, but the number is a Carribean or S American number where they'll charge you $25 per minute to call. You end up with a big phone bill and you're hosed because - you made the phone call. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) |
