Had parts for sale on this website. Received an e-mail ( see below ) regarding wanting to purchase. Was told a check was coming. Was told check was greater that my selling price and I should return unused amount to sender in Oklahoma. The parts to be sent to San Jose Ca. Received check from a flooring company in Tyler Texas , deposited it in bank and although it was deposited in my account two days later the bank withdrew the amount due to insufficient funds The names associated with these folks are: WILLIAM PORTER [mailto:malachi890987@gmail.com t Lisa Bobo 4128 NW 57th Street Oklahoma City OK Richard Powell 636 Adeline Ave San Jose CA 95136

Very old scam sending too much and having the recipient refund the excess. Hopefully you did not ship the parts. Mike "Kube" Kubarth

Howdy - thank you for posting about this scam. I was contacted by William Porter from the same email address (malachi890987@gmail.com), this for a private sale of ammunition, and was wondering what was going on. Took numerous tries for them to get me a check, and it was over 8x the selling price we agreed to, and on the face of the check they had simply printed "Cashier's Check" and it sure isn't a cashiers check. I know this isn't Ford Forum news, but just wanted to thank you for posting about your experience, saved me some headaches. With thanks, Tim Bremner

Tell-tale scam is anyone who wants to send you an overpayment.
