if u wanna take a jive at it (even though it is a scam), tell him he has to send the check first, and it has to cash first, and wait 2 weeks to make sure it doesnt bounce.

yup just got the same scam. They send a fake Cashier's check for some crazy amount, and ask you to mail them the difference.
The key is the word "shipper", they all use it.

Cristian Crema's name pops up a lot when it comes to email scams , you'd think after using that name so much , the 'tard would have enough brains to change it .

Wow, glad I checked this. He just emailed me about the TPI I'm selling.
I checked out the originating IP... he's in Nigeria. Nigeria is notorious for email scams.

Crispy Crema?
Isn't this the dope that emails people about buying things/cars by having his "partners" in the states send a check for some ungodly amount and asks you to keep the payment plus a little extra and send him the difference?

Yep, these folks are all over the web -- I have a good friend that dealt with them on a 2nd gen. The mail a fake cashier's check for well above the asking price, then ask you to mail the difference over your selling price back to them -- you get stuck with the bad check after a few days, when the bank calls you and says it's fake. They never actually pick up the car or parts or whatever you're selling -- they just want the cash you send them. I guess some folks are still falling for it -- BEWARE!
