Ya know, selling something on the web can be rather trying at times. Scam after scam. The names change but the game remains the same. Here's the wording from the email I received today. About the same wordings as last week. And the week before. And the week before. ad nauseum.

Hello, My name is veeral williams, i am an international business man based in (Huddersfiel) U.K, right now i have a client interested in your (1948 Dodge Power Wagon)and i will like to know your final offering price and present conditions, please email me at your earliest convenience

I responded that I work for a government branch with a three letter abreviation as the name. Starts with F**. I advised he can call me there between 8 and 5.
But,,, what if it (was) legit?
