[Jukebox-list] 1015 selling scam warning

[etreble7]

Hi Ed,
I have to chuckle reading your email, last week I listed a bunch of 
furniture on Craigslist (had to make room for more jukes! lol) and even on 
very small items I received several scam emails regarding buyers outside the 
country.  I am guessing they just hit every possible posting with the same 
bogus info and hope for a score.  Unless I get something local, I just don't 
bother responding.  Thanks for the heads-up.
Jackie
