MONEY SCAM IN THE CLASSIFIEDS

I AM TRYING TO SELL MY TRUCK IN THE CLASSIFIEDS AND GOT A REPLY FROM A VIVIANDLAW@YAHOO.COM AND WANTED TO BUY MY TRUCK. THEY CLAIM THAT THEY ARE FROM BROOKLYN AND WANTED TO DO A WIRE TRANSFER FOR THE TRUCK. I OPENED A FAKE ACCOUNT AT THE BANK TO RECIEVE THE TRANSFER. (SO THEY WOULDNT HAVE ACCESS TO MY REAL ACCOUNT.) THEY CALLED THE BANK TODAY AND SAID I WROTE THEM A CHECK AND WANTED TO CASH IT. FOR 14,000 DOLLARS!!! SO BEWARE OF A VIVIAN LAW, IF YOU GET A E-MAIL FROM THIS PERSON, ITS A SCAM, DON'T REPLY...

I got 2 emails from the same guy....

here's what the emails looked like:

Everybody should be cautious!

THATS EXACTLY WHAT THEY TOLD ME! THATS CRAZY

i got the same one lol...but i thinks its just one of those things that reads email addresses and automatically emails them

NO I WAS EMAILING THEM BACK AND FORTH, THEY WANTED PICS OF THE FRONT AND THEN THE BACK THEN MY BANK INFO TO COMPLETE THE TRANSACTION ETCC. THIS WENT ON FOR 3 - 4 DAYS.

props on opening a fake account, when i sold a set of wheels on here a few months ago, i got a few of these responds. they were from overseas and wanted to pay me 5 times what i was asking to help pay for boxing and shipping and i was supposed to send the rest back with the wheels. talk about shady, i knew it was a scam, just by the way the emails were worded. minitruckers dont talk like that. let alone there wasnt enough misspelled words ha ha ha dont let yourself get scammed guys.
