I got a call saturday about the H I sold last month. The guy said he was calling from NY city and looking for a tractor to export to africa. The area code (646) checked out but there were a couple things that really made me leary after hearing just that.
1) I could barely understand him
2) when i told him the one I still have is an articulated 200hp tractor he wanted to know if it was 4 or 6 cylinder. It seems like someone really looking for a tractor would have some understanding of what that means, wouldn"t it?

I's only gonna say this....

1) Try calling for help with your computer. You won't be able to understand that guy either and...

2) If you think the scammers are after you SELLING a tractor just let it be known that you want to BUY one!
