Beware of Scammers!

This is real fun! There are scammers everywhere in the world.

And these scammers are stupid people. really stupid. Incredibly stupid and extremely stupid and don't deserved to be called scammers but idiots.

So the story like this: I want to sell my laptop so I post on Craiglist and Facebook Marketplace. Soon Michael Worns reply from Craiglist say want to buy. So I'm quite smart to search for his name and email then discovered he's a scammer. SO bye bye la, delete the email.

Then another guy email and another woman and another guy and another guy and another idiot message... (both Craiglist and Facebook)
And all their messages: Hi seller [hi buyer :) anyone calls people like that?], how's your day? eh my daughter go to West Africa la, Nigeria la...study there lo, so I want to give her surprise, a big surprise. So I will pay you extra to cover for delivery...and ho, I'll pay you by Paypal...[wah some give me extra $100, some up to $1000!].
Oh I need your name, email, address, paypal account no. bla bla...[some request to pay me check so need address to mail to me bla bla...]

And a few are very religious idiots, which open and end their message with may God bless you. Thanks but no thanks.

Very stupid la they all, not qualified to be scammers. FYI: they say will send check to you or pay via paypal but actually won't because they will fake a paypal email, or say got problem with the check whatever...and you lost everything.

Oh, actually among those idiots there are a few relatively not that stupid because they put some honest-looking display photos to deceive people.

By the way, still waiting for buyer...
