Anyone ever gotten one like this? I am fairly certain it would turn out to be a standard advance fee (the "deaf-mute" is a giveaway plus I checked and the going price is closer to $20K) but I have never gotten a bogus "for-sale" like this before and I think the mailing service used strips the IP. What do you think? Standard 419?

Hello .
I am selling a 2005 Bobcat 430 Excavator. My asking price is $5700 and a great price in my opinion.
First of all I want to apologize if my email does not interest you . I used this marketing company to contact people directly at their email address and
taking my ad to a new level . This way I increase the number of possible buyers for my Bobcat . I know this message will also reach people that are not
interested in my product and I want to apologize for that again .
For people that are interested in this great 2005 Bobcat 430 Excavator I hosted a photo on imageshack so that you can see it and make an idea about this
bobcat. Here is the photo : http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/5995/57951302.jpg .
If you`re interested in this please email me at : [email protected] for more photos and details . Here is the description:

I got the same exact format in my aol account 2 or 3 days ago, it landed in the spam folder. Didn't bother responding to it, but from the way it's written it's probably a scam. |

It's certainly bizarre! A deafmute Bobcat seller looking for 25% market value sending spam through a marketing agency - now that has to be a great trophy opportunity  |

That is about a $30,000 piece of equipment. You could barely put new treads on one and have it serviced for what the <strike>lad</strike> man is asking. 100% scam IMO. |

Ahem...might this be a successful lad de-education?

A lad living in Tennessee, how bizarre.
It's definitely a scam. We can discard all other evidence and just take this into account: "I am ready to deliver anywhere".
Anyway, I feel a phone call is in order. EDIT: No answer. |

Does it come with a five year guarantee? Can you check its pedigree? Has it had its vaccinations? |
