Dodgy reply to my Ad on this forum
#1

Looks like I have got an other scammer interested in my ad on the forum. A certain Dean Dawes is interested in the price for my "(Hp28S German manuals for English (TRADE)" he wants to know if it is in good condition and I say in the ad it is. Also the English is far from perfect and it is a strange yahoo email.

Anyone heard of him before?

I guess I will just ignore his email....

Could be a Nigerian scam. You recognize these easily if they propose at once to pay immediately on a secure way. In this case, ignore it. Otherwise, could be a non native English speaker fellow calc collector...

I'll post one day my experience with Nigerian scammers : I wanted to know how they proceeded and it's really stunning.
