I f'ing hate scammers. I tried selling a camera on craigslist... never again. Those guys come out of the woodwork when you try to do anything through craigslist. I did receive some entertaining e-mails though. I got some awesome e-mails that were supposed to be from paypal telling me about a new buyer protection plan and that I had received money but it would be held from my account until the buyer received the package.
Unfortunately it was in the worst broken english I have seen and I am pretty sure the guys at Paypal know how to put together a proper english sentence. (They also know how to earn interest on your money while it's being held for ever)
You would think these scammers would put a little more effort into making these e-mails look legit. Fortunately they do a terrible job.
