Low and behold it is almost exactly word for word what you posted. Too many red flags, part of us wants to go for it because we want to make the sale (as you said it is a large item) and the other part of our conscious is saying wait a minute something is wrong. I am so glad my friend did not get caught up into it. Thank you for posting this, it was meant for me to be up late catching up on my Etsy reading.marymcnultydesignnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975801764707406754.post-34918236341548353682009-11-01T10:28:17.832-06:002009-11-01T10:28:17.832-06:00Do they think we are all that dumb??
