Welcome to the world of the 419ers..

And the appropriate respose (like a couple of other people did) would have been to follow the instructions we add at the bottom of the email and forward it to us.

Allows us to investigate the IP and ban it from accessing our servers.

Posting it multiple times on forums is not that productive.

What is the only necessary information for selling an item to a buyer? I suppose the buyer does't need the personal information of the seller.
