Hi everyone
Just to let you know I've been trying to sell my MAP76S on Amazon.co.uk and
today received a scam message which I replied to before realising the fraud.
It asked me to send the machine to Nigeria for a Xmas present and said the
would pay by BidPay agent.
DO NOT believe anything like this if you ever sell over the net. I almost
lost a perfect GPS. I would rather give it away than to have it stolen like
this.
Regards to all

Brian

Well you passed up a good sale. Those Nigerians are tremendously
generous people.

I agree, I got an email from a Nigerian Prince who wanted to send several
million dollars to my Bank Account. All I had to do was send him $500 to
process the exchange....

You'd think he could have just taken the $500 out of the 15 million he was
sending me....

Same situation here. They told me that the $500US I sent them would
go toward the wire exchange fee to send me the jackpot. I figure $500
is a show of good faith on my part. Can't wait to get the big money
in my account.
