Thumbs up Classified ads on GeoExpat

I just put up my car for sale and had some a$$hole try to scam me. He expected me to believe that he had a client lined up that had left him a cheque for more than the car's value and that he would pay the full asking price without inspecting it. He also wanted me to think that his client would ship it from HK to the US. Hmmm, for a 2nd hand Honda? I know it's in excellent condition, but still....

Just thought I'd share this experience in case you are contacted by the same idiot.

My car's still up for sale if anyone's interested!

Some new scummy ISPs in the UK have released new IP addresses to Nigeria. Not sure if you know about a game called "whack the mole" .. thats what we've been playing since the last three days.
