<VV> Scams

[Brian]

I got the sam emessage in response to my ad seeking an LM radio speaker.  These scam artists must think we're brain dead.

Amazing. Yesterday I post a "for sale" advt in the Corsa Classifieds and 
within a few hours am receiving scam messages (four so far):
"issueing dept of my client will be sending the payment through check drawn 
from thier us bank account and you are to wire the excess funds to the 
shipping agent as the payment includes your money for the car and the 
excess funds you are to send to the shipping company agent through western 
union money transfer"

It looks like the VV source site may be being used as a relay (sent an 
e-mail to the webmaster) or might just be the way the e-mail button works. 
One giveaway is that other than using the subject line, the message does 
not seem to know what kind of car it is and it is evident they did not look 
at my web page.
