>>Unknown if he's really trying to scam you but thought it was
strange that he's send you the 11 grand then ask you to forward 6500 or so
to the shipping company...
How this scam works is the guy sends you a fake Moneygram, but it is SO
professionally done by professional counterfeiters, the bank takes it as real.
You
send out ANOTHER one from your account, but since you're honest, it's a good
one. In 3-4 weeks, the bank comes back and says "oh, that "certified check" or
Western Union moneygram you cashed for 11,000 was a counterfeit, so we're
deducting the amount from your account ". By the time you get the bad news,
your
HONEST moneygram has been cashed and you are BURNT to a crisp! The bank won't
go after them, it's on YOU, like a bad bounced check someone wrote you. You
have to pay YOUR bank's fine and fee to cover it. Then YOU try to collect from
the payee. GOod luck if you fall for this scam...it's been going around for
awhile. DON'T get sucked in, NEVER accept MORE money than you have asked for
the
car or truck or whatever. If it sounds too good or to funky to be true....
