    I tried to buy a cell phone on Amazon. Samsung D500...Of course when I tried to buy it from an Amazon seller...it was a scammer....they are all over Amazon now...now I have this guy wanting (what a joke) to sell me 2 D500's for $180 each and he will give me a 3rd free....The phone retails for $399...Payed through Amazon but of course they refunded the payment because the guy is a scammer....now the guy is trying to get me to Western Union him the money...I told him I sent it already to wish he replied....

    "Dear Aaron,

    Can you please send me again the payment confirmation because is a confusion right here.

    best regards"

    his email address is [email protected] and his name is Savu Daniel...
    The total amount he wants is $360.00

    his first email read....

    "Dear customer,

    Yes if you'll pay for 2 items you'll receive 3.
    The product is new it's in original box and never
    opened. The product has one year international
    warranty and comes with all accessories.
    If you want to buy the product please send me your
    full address and name and I will contact Amazon to
    send you the product. After that you will receive a
    confirmation from Amazon with the instructions of
    payment. If you are interested mail me ASAP.


    Best Regards"

    his second email read.....

    "Dear customer,

    The product has been sent to amazon, is already in
    their custody. They will send it to you in about 2 or
    3 days.
    You will get a full refund and you may go to any bank
    and there you will find an moneygram office. Send me
    the payment confirmation (MTCN) ASAP.

    Best regards"

    Any ideas?
    Can someone photoshop something or figure out a way to keep messing with this guy?

    Yes it is but the physical address must check out and they must visit or be a resident there. Once you have that verified, hard without long distance help, the rest is gravy.

    There is a story of someone selling their Apple computer to a scammer online. Its hilarious what they do. They even go so far as to track the person down to the Internet cafe where they scam from and live nearby. Its quite a read.

    I'm searching for it but I can't find the link. Macintosh geeks will probably remember it or have a link to it. Once you have the address you can have all sorts of fun... you can offer to pick it up, you can see if he's involved in other scams with goods coming and going, with a physical address they are traceable.
