Hello ,
I got your mail, well i'm satify with the payment method you indicate above but i want you to know that my mode of payment is by check. SO if you accept check reply me soon, also waiting to see pics of your horse and will want payment to be asap. I will go about payment by instructing my client in the states to issue you a certified bank check of ($6,000) and this should take care of all expences in this transaction, what you will do once you have recieved it is to cash it, deduct the ($3,000) of your horse money and wire the balance to my international shipping agent through western union money transfer, once he recieved the balance, he will come over to your location the very next day for pick up.
The money wired to the shipper is his fees for his services, transportation to your location and back to me and also for all charges that may arise along this transaction cos i will want it to be delivered to me safely without no damages.

I shall send you my shipper address as soon as i contact him. All i need of you now is to mail me your full name and contact address as well as phone number so that i can forward it to my client who will issue you the check. Let me know asap if you are still interested so that we could seal this on time.

Nigerian Fraud Scheme
Details copied from KSL news
Feb. 7, 2003
Please be aware of the following fraud scheme:

Individuals in Nigeria or other West African countries will often respond to ads placed on various classified web sites on the Internet about the sale of autos or other large ticket items. (The individuals will often claim they are from Scotland or another country outside the U.S.). Typically they agree to purchase a vehicle and will then forward a counterfeit cashiers check to the victim in amounts exceeding the agreed upon purchase price. The unwitting victim contacts the buyer concerning the overpayment.

The victim is usually instructed to wire funds via Western Union to Nigeria or another West African country. Funds are usually wired before the counterfeit cashiers check is returned to the bank where it was deposited. This results in vehicles being shipped without payment and the victim is out additional money spent on the wire. In every instance the bank will pass the loss back to the individual who deposited the counterfeit check.

The FBI, Secret Service, and other government agencies are well aware of this fraud scheme. They state that "This fraud scheme should not deter users from using the Internet as a place to sell and buy goods. Users should feel completely safe in placing classified ads, but should use wisdom in offers they receive from interested parties."

And remember, if it sounds to good to be true, it probably is!
