Jim As others have indicated, this is a scam. Last year I got a response to an ad?for a piano I had on Craig's list. They were going to send a truck all the way from Houston to pick it up.?They not only don't know how to write proper English, they don't even know where Hawaii is.

I'm so glad to hear from you ,and also would like you to know i need the music instrument real soon,and would like to get the music instrument,About the payment mean while i have located my shipping agent who will come and pick up the music instrument in your location after payment . im traveling on in few days time and i have to mail the agent's payment to him also which he'll use it to get a flight ticket to your resident to pick the item up and bring it home to me,and i am not sure if i can locate him before then so I've decided on what to do...So what i decide to do now is send the payment to you in excess of the agent's money and all you will do is take it to your bank and get it cashed instantly then deduct your money and when the agent is located i will send you an email containing his full information which you will need to transfer the rest funds(after your payment has been deducted)to him and that can be easily done via? WESTERN UNION (there should be one around you) so he can pick it up and get a flight to your resident for pick up.I hope i can put a trust on you on this. Get back to me with the following:Full Name...........................Physical Home address.............................City.......................................State................................................zip code.....................................Cell Number........................so that I can send out the payment via ups by tomorrow morning and i'll email instructions & tracking # so that you can know the exact time it would be delivered to you....Thanks and stay bless? ?
