Scam artists are the scum of the earth! I about fell pray to one while trying to buy a boat off of craigslist....thank goodness for my intuition. No telling how many fools fell for that boat! Makes me mad again just talking about it! Couldn't tell ya what I wanted to do to that guy, I'd be banned for life!
