I was contacted today by a gentlemen on Yahoo Messenger, apparently soliciting new business for his importing from West Africa. Has anyone ever heard of this person? I am providing the conversation that was had through messenger. I am not in the import business (and more than likely never will be), but I am curious as to this person's credibility.

[10:49] aquahaab: ok thanks

I personally love how he expects me to bring him business. Is anyone else getting spammed by this person through messenger or emails? Again, I am mostly curious, but want to make sure the information is out there for people who may have been contacted. Thanks all!
