If it keeps someone from falling prey, it is always worth repeating.

Steve,
That scam is big in the classic car business also. They want to send you
a
certified check and once the car is gone, you find out much later that the
check looked real but was not. Thanks for pointing it out to this group.

Have any of you guys seen this.. Someone wants to buy something from

They offer you a check for WAY above the amount you are asking for your
item.. Then they expect you to SEND THEM THE CHANGE!!
