I worked as a co-secretary on my dad's large ranch {Seven Blackfoot Ranch LLC} in Townsend,MT for 5 months. I must confess I will want to secure the place down before my arrival in your neighborhood for my academic process so it will be easy for me to commence my studies.I will want you to tell me all about the place via email,as i can't see it because of my tight schedule and distance but the pictures.Also,my network provider don't allow long distance call...I also will want you to know that i have a 2008 Toyota corolla car which i use back home in Birmingham and will surely come over with it ,and little of my furniture;

a 42 inches Sony LCD TV
a sony vaio laptop
a medium size bed
a mini Sony home theater
a bed size fridge

Please let me know if there will be room for them and for my car park spot.Let me also know how i can go about securing the place down before my arrival.Be rest assured that all payment proceedings will be adequately taken care of by my DAD.Hence,I will like you to send me your full Names{as it will appear on your payment},mailing address and your phone number,so that my Dad will issue out the payment for the spot as soon as possible.With that you can hold on the place for me till i come.I will also be busy trying to secure my flight to the States as i promise to let you have my flight details too. Feel free to ask me any more question....ok

Merry Christmas!!

Brusett, Montana? Talk about the middle of nowhere.

[Craigslist scam]

Janet M. Justin scam-we got fedexed a $3500 check to deposit, $1000 for rent and told to wire $2500 to a guy in California in order to ship her car from England. Exact same letter. Original email address was [neaska@gmail.com] then switched to [teachmyson12@gmail.com]

...a bed size fridge...

She must be a Smeg-head?

These responses do make me giggle though. After all, who really brings white-goods from the UK to the USA?

Maybe it's a box of "Africa cloths".....
