Actually, yes, i have spent money on an animal without asking questions about it first, lol. Not always the smart thing to do, BUT, it is called an impulse buy by OR more appropriatly, just wanting to beat everyone else out on an unbelievable animal. Sometimes it is all about who is the fastest. I have sent an email simply saying, give me your address and the funds will be out. I am taking a chance, but it happens. You win some, you lose some. As far as the checks looking real. To the average person, they may look authentic, but to me, they do not. I have been through this scam twice and both times i could tell they were fake. Then again, i know what to look for. The average person does not. Honestly, i just like messing with them. I knew they were scammers from the start so i figured if they want to waste their time and risk getting caught, great. And i must admit, i like messing with them a bit. I am a Fugitive Recovery agent so i have some great resources. The smart thing to do is turn the fake checks over the the authorities.
