Had a phone call about 20 minutes ago, from an AT&T service operator for those who have a hearing or speech disability. (the operator serves as a go between) She said there was someone on the other line who wished to speak to me, but it was all through the operator, who read what he typed to me, and typed what I said to him. He was interested in a part I have for sale, wanted the final price, and wouldn't give me information about shipping. Said he had his own shipping company who could take care of it. He never answered how exactly He was going to get it from my house. Anyway, he then said his business associate would send me a draft for $2500 and forward the rest to him.....you guys know the rest. Same thing as the E mail scams...thought I'd let you all know. Oh yeah, and everything they wanted to know about, they ised the word "inquiry." Now I use that word too, but, I can remember the Scam E mails I would get, and they all used "inquiry" in them too. That was the first thing that alerted me. Maybe this was a coincidence, and I just hung up on a poor guy, but I certainly don't think it was....be careful, those guys are low......AC
