Scam Watch

This doesn't really have anything to do with Lincoln, but I'm posting it because I'm tired of seeing people fall for these scams. Why would any normal person write a check for thousands of dollars extra -- using a check that doesn't even have their name on it, I might add -- and then ask you to send them the difference? What possible explanation can you come up with that would cause that to make sense?

I am completely baffled as to how anyone could fall for this scam.  The only reasonable explanation is stupidity.

I find it perplexing as well. But there seem to be quite a few people who are taken in by this scam. Hmmmm…maybe I should start making a living off of all these gullible people….might be better than my desk job.
