An ex co-worker found himself in a similar Craigslist scam when selling a power tool. The 'buyer' had sent a money gram or bank check of some sort which was deposited into the sellers account. Many banks clear these forged checks without due diligence and in this case the scammer buyer sent a bank check well in excess of ten times the asking price for the tool. The seller is supposed to wire the extra funds back to the buyer. Seller ends up losing his money to the scammer and the bank when they finally catch on.
I warned him about what he was getting into on the day he was to mail the hammer-drill and and wire the excess funds to the buyer. This guy was a big time ass clown and I debated telling him but in the end I took pity on his stupidity and saved him $1400.

Jeff, if you connect a bunch of those gaming systems, you can create a pretty powerful computer ... or at least that is what some middle eastern countries thought back around 9/11. My computer shop was getting hit with requests for Playstations by folks from the middle east on an hourly basis. Actually had to create a filter that automatically sent to spam any emails with playstation in them.

I'm working on a new play station program. It will automatically launch a missile towards North Korea, the minute it is turned on in Nigeria. They do have missiles in Nigeria, don't they? lol
