Agrees to give me a check, mails it to me (gave my info since hey, desperate for money). let's me know that no it's not local and I was just too dumb to realize...
"Thanks for getting back to me with your info for the check. I do
contact my sectary now to issue the payment to you, because am now out
of the state for business trip. You will receive the payment through
USPS Courier services with the shipping funds. to cover the shipment
of the goods i bought from you. Once you receive the check, have it
cashed and deduct your money for the goods also Deduct $50 for your
running around that I have caused you during the transaction period
and send the remaining funds to the mover,and the mover is also
picking some other valuable goods (like household, furniture's and
electronics set.) at the same city of your location, to my new
apartment. That is why you need to help me and transfer the amount to
the moving company.. Please let me know if i can trust you??? so that
i can move forward from here. I will get back to you with tracking
number immediately the secretary email me the tracking number."
TL;DR, Miss Terry (no doubt false name) tried to get me to "launder" or whatever you'd call it some money. I'm calling up and reporting it. Her name is Jean Terry and her email is
