I hope I don't get in trouble here for this but here we go;
I had posted some adds on Kingsnake for some cornsnakes about 6 months ago when I was contacted by a so called Kelly Bush. My add was for corns totaling a cost of $800.
This guy said he wanted to buy the snakes and was willing to send me a check for $3000. I was supposed to keep $1000 ($200 extra for my troubles) and wire $2000 to his sick mother in California. Right off the bat I knew this was a scam. I had been contacted before under different names and would just delete the e-mails but I got tired and decided to play the game and make this guy work for something he was not going to get. I went ahead and corresponded with the guy and had him send a check. The check was from some one in Kentucky. It arrived in a USPS express mail envelope with an address originating in California. The guy was persistent in contacting me and pressuring me to go to the bank and deposit the check. I told him that I deposited the check but that he forgot to sign it and that my bank refused to even give it back. I then got him to send another check. I too arrived in a USPS express mail envelope with the same address but this time it was a different check from someone in California. I then contacted the Secret Service who are responsible for pursuing this type of fraud. They told me to mail the envelopes and checks to them and that they would look into it but that they probably would not do anything about it. I then ignored the e-mails from Kelly Bush. The other day (6 months later) I was cleaning up my e-mails and ran across one of the e-mails. I decided to screw around some more, so I e-mailed him the following:
Hello my friend,
> >
> > Did you receive the money I sent you last week?
> I
> > want to do more business
> > with you.
I then received an e-mail from him:
hello have you send the money and were is the info ?
>
> KELLY BUSH
So I e-mailed him this:
> I sent it to
>
> Lorie Duff
> City: San JAcinto
> State : CA Zipcode : 92583
>
> MCM# 18g05f2u4c8kyour8se2lf
I then got this disturbing e-mail:
f@# you mother f%$#er
So I e-mailed him this:
It really sucks that you had to spend all that money and time to send me those fake checks and all that time writing e-mails and all. Yeah, you thought I was the sucker who you were going to scam. So I guess I am a Mother F&%$er and you would be the mother AS$#@LE. Try f%$#ing someone else like your self. Both your checks were sent to the secret service and you will be getting contacted by them shortly. Hope you have a strong ass, cause you'll need it in jail where big daddy is waiting for you F$#k face.
I think he is mad at me…Lol no LMAO.

Hey, at least you got her/him good!
Have a genuine phoney 8K check for my troubles. But I was fortunately wary enough to check the thing out before depositing into my account.
