I was selling one of my guitars on recycler.com and I recieved an email saying I am interested in you item(s) I will pay you 100 more than asking price...... you know the rest.

I responded telling them I was going to report them to the F.B.I
for fraud, I didnt but i thought it would be fun to try to scare them
