When I had my RV for sale, I got one almost everyday. It is so easy to spot them, cause they try so hard to sound american, but they can't keep the foreign accent out of their wording.. I once had a guy send me a $10,000 certified check on a bank in florida. I took it to my bank and told them to call the bank in florida and see if it was real. Of course it wasn't. It was all printed perfect and looked to be 100%, but I just knew it was a phony. I turned it and the address over to the FBI for action.

I got a call from Mike Brooks today, he got the same email for his trailer that is also advertised in the newsletter and on the website.... IT IS A SCAM! .... Jeez, we ain't safe in our own yard anymore.  If you sell something don't let it go without cash in hand or cleared in the bank, these phoney money orders are everywhere!.....
