I'm having fun with this idiot  B J lanre <bj.lanre1@gmail.com is their email address, and them to the slime bag list.

Yes, the item is still for sale, and all info and pics are in the ad.

  

   You can send the payment to:

    Bill Hutton
    15015 62nd Street North
    PO Box 3801
    Stillwater, Minnesota 55082-3801
    651-430-7600

    The best time to contact me is between 8 am and 5 pm central time.

The name I gave him is the Sheriff of Washington County MN, and that's the mailing address of the county jail, and the phone number is the internet crimes hotline the county has setup.

This all went down over about 15 minutes total time.




So my response was:

Not a problem, send the check to the address care of :
Bill Hutton
    15015 62nd Street North
    PO Box 3801
    Stillwater, Minnesota 55082

I assure you, all will be right when this transaction is completed!

IDK if it's wrong, but it's just plain fun!

I'd love to be a fly on the wall when the sheriff opens this piece of mail.  If anything, I'm making this piece of trash waste their postage and time to mail this out.

This sucker is really falling for it!

Hello Bill, (this is the sheriff's name)
I was notify by FEDEX COURRIER that the payment has

it is pertinent that you follow my instructions

sent to my shipper that will be coming around to pick
the item from you .i have gotten the shipper details
,they are as stated below:

any cashing stores or bereau de change around you for
immediate cash. as soon as you have the cash at hands,
deduct the amount for your item and send all the rest
funds in US dollars to my shipper via WESTERN UNION
MONEY TRANSFER. the western union charges should be
deducted from the excess funds ....ok? i am sure you
will get a western union outlet around you there. make
sure you send to me the transfer information( i.e
SENDER NAME,RECIVER NAME, MTCN, question and answer if
there is any, amount sent after western union
charges.) via email as soon as the transfer is made
via western union money transfer. immediately my
shipper receives the funds , i shall ask him to call
you on the phone ; both of you can discuss a
convenient pick up time and location of the item.
Please i will like you to email me immediately you
have this email so that i can get updated about things

I have no idea who S Burkhardt is-are you sure you sent it to the right address?
That is the name listed on the tracking number-which claims to have delivered the check, but I still don't have it.
