I hate to tell you this Marty but this scam has been going around
for years now I think. Anytime anybody sends you a MO or Check for
way over the amount, asking for a return payment of the excess,, RED
flags ought to start popping up all over in your head. Or I especially like
the one with the theme some prince from Africa asking you to hold on
to 15,000,000$ for whatever reason, and he'll split it with you. Yea
right..... scam, scam, scam. LOL
