Indonesia again! I have actually had one legitimate sale to Indonesia but it looks like we all should be very cautious of any inquiries coming from there - especially from people with English names who do not write as if English were their native language. The credit card in question was probably stolen in America like those in the last scam we had and therefore has an English name on it.
Do you plan to play along for a while and report the card number when you get it like we did before? |

I did reply stating that I did not sell all the items she was asking about (I don't sell anything called a tarantula) and offered a link to my web page. I said I would be interested in finding out what they would like to have made and then we can work a deal.
We'll see. |
