Subject: ok - $700

"Thanks for your rapid response,I m ok with the items,however i will like to pay for the rims via US Certified Check, i will need your full name,phone number and address to send the check to you.The check will get to you in 2-3 days and when you got the check you go head in cashing the check at your Bank,i will wait for you to confirm and clear the check before any futher transaction.You dont need to worry about the shippment,i have a shipper that will come for the pickup at your location after the check clears in your bank and deduct your money for the items..
The payment will be in excess as i will want you to contact my shipper with the excess fund after you must have confirmed and cashed the check at your bank,you will send the excess fund to my shipper via Money Gram Money Transfer,he needs the money to come and pick the rims up at your location you will also let me know when you will be available for them to come for the pickup after you have your money at hand..If you have any question regarding this transaction please dont esitate to ask.You can get the posting deleted from Craiglist. Thanks"

I was laughing so hard when I received this.
