Ppl who have nothing to hide do not give a complex life story.



lol at the doctor who sings in the church choir. He forgot to mention his charity work to raise money for the orphans.



You obviously sense something isn't right or you wouldn't be asking.
There is no Mormon Tabernacle Choir Extension. Why would a choir employ a physician anyway? Total scam. If you ever got the money from them it would be a fake cashiers check, you will deposit it and then ship off the PSP. A week later you will find out the check didn't clear and the bank will take the money back out of your account.Does this sound fake?
considering she is a doctor, he works at the embassy ask yourself why would they want to be buying second hand/used items.

i would bet a months pay that there is some scam lurking in there somewhere.

remember if its too good to be true.... then it probally is!Does this sound fake?
Scam, They want you to rush it to shipping because the payment will fail and it will be too late for you to get it back.
If I were you I'd try to find another buyer because this one sounds too fishy.
its a long story, so it's true.



haha, ask for their phone number. if not find a buyer in your own area.
SCAM ALERT!!!





dont trust them
hmmmmmm...weird....
Yep, I can't put my finger on why (what kind of scam this could be, I mean)...It does seem very iffy.
