I didn't look into it too much at first, just simply replied to the email with my quote.
The following email was sent in response which clued me in that this was a scam:
Hello Jeff,
Thank you very much for the quote you provided to me as earlier on,any way i will like to add a quote on another
60.000 copies making 120,000 copies and get back to me with the SAM total cost on that so that i can proceed with credit card for payment.
notes:Jeff, i will like you to understand that,this printing will be shipped to my s.o.s home in Sweden,so i like to recommend this shipping company[fascom shipping co.ltd] via email:
[email protected]. for the pick up of the products from you location to the the following address provided on the Art work .so i will like you to contact them via their email,and request a freight quote for shipping the products from your location to the delivery address to Sweden.
Looking forwards for your reply .....
Rev.Wilson
The phone number is a California area code. The address is in Nashville and corresponds to a publishing company. And he wants me to send the items to Sweden. How many Reverends do you know that have a home in Sweden?
Upon further review, the IP address corresponds to a Ghana location.
Basically, they seem to be trolling for people who will hire their "shipping company" and pay for the "shipment" of a large quantity of heavy items.
