I recievd an email this morning asking if my 48 is still available and the price, I replied yes its available and the price is $9500. here is what I got back.

Hello,

Thanks for your immediate response.Asking price is okay.Presently I am off the shores of Libya with my family where I work as a Drilling Engineer on the coastal explorations with Exxon Mobil Oilfields.So I will need to ask a colleague from my home town in Texas to send you a Cashier's Check.Please send me your address,full name and telephone number so that I can instruct my colleague to send you the Check.Since that is the only means of payment I can offer now due to my present location.Do not bother about the shipping to libya I have a shipping agent who will come over to the USA to ship some of my items from my home in Texas so he would also come over to your house for pick up of the Dodge Power Wagon.Please reply asap.

Regards,
Roger

P.S:Please send some pictures

It smells like the same scam just with out the request to refund the diffrence yet. What do you think. I am not going to talk to this guy further unless I have proof hes for real.
