There is another scam out there. If you use pay pal at all then you want to hear this. I got a notification supposedly from pay pal saying someone I haven't heard of put $10 in my account. there is a link in the mail to go to a site that looks like pay pal to accept or reject the payment. they are gathering your password and ID there. If you don't use there link and type in pay pals web address you will see your account at the real site with no info about this payment. because it doesn't exist.
Another possible scam I came across today is on craigs list. I found this great deal on a 2004 Jeep rubicon edition wrangler with 22,000 miles perfect shape for $8000. I emailed the guy and he said its in ontario canada. he will ship for free once you pay thru some escrow service. he didn't give any address , name or telephone number. The jeep is worth about double his asking price. Must be a scam.
here is a link to it.
