Tom-  You should REALLY flip him out and tell em " Oh yhea buddy, well guess what I AM the FBI and I'm coming for YOU" LOL

Boy oh boy, the Euopeans must really think little of us American's intelligence level to think we'd fall for all this crap.

Guys & gals---report these to the FBI's website for cybercrime! And God help anyone really named Joe Martens!!! LOL!!! jh

OH,  Too Funny !!

I used to get the stupid emails that said,   " WE ARE INTERESTED IN YOUR ADVERTISED, WHAT IS YOUR LAST ASKING PRICE "  

 I used to reply,   " Go Read the Add again " 

Then one day I was rather irritated, and I wrote back:

"   I HOPE YOU PRAY, BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T YOU WILL NEED TO START !! "    TRYING TO SCAM PEOPLE OUT OF MONEY IS A " SIN" .    YOU MIGHT NOT WANT TO FIND OUT HOW HOT " HELL "  REALLY IS.!!!

I have not recieved one ever since,  so I think they must have taken me off their list.   LOL !!  

Anyone that puts an  ad in any periodical will get a letter from these scam artist..You would not believe how many older people and breeders get all excited and have been ripped off by depositing these checks and not waiting and talking to a bank executive before believing any of this.

Even on  "Judge Judy " a woman got a check and ask her boyfriend to front her the money to send back to the check sender before he would come pic up the dog and guess the outcome...Boyfriend is sueing girlfriend  in Judge Judy;s court for the 1,500.00 over the price of her dog, because it was a scam. And he is gonna get awarded it...Judy was not impressed with a woman who would not check out such a stupid letter, before borrowing the extra money instead of ,waiting out the check to be bounced as bogus.

This Nigerian Scam has been going around as long as the one from Edgar Matens. 

Why anyone even has to ask anymore is beyond me.

Anyone who has had an ad for puppies, horses or cars has had an email from Joe Martens.

Scam.  Nothing "suspicious" about it.  "KNOWN" scam.

I recieved a similiar one from this Martens guy....  When I told him I only accepted Western Union or Pay Pal he didnt respond back...  I too have recieved BOGUS checks and money orders for dogs...  SCAM!!!

Here is another...

NO reply back when I said I wouldnt accept a check.  He never specified what? pup he wasinterested in or had any other questions beyond what you are reading....  What a waste of my time....   SCAM!!!

Ive had a good few too.

My bank (Bank of America) won't have anything to do with a bank "draft," domestic or foreign. As far as my bank manager is concerned, they are ALL bogus. I accept direct deposits, wire transfers, Western Union ONLY. No personal checks from anyone I don't know either... Its a constant source of amazement to me how many bogus "Nigerian" hoax messages I find in my inbox and spam folders every day. I gues somebody must fall for one now and then or the crooks wouldn't keep trying this same scam, nearly identical in salutations and content, time and time again.
