The P-P-P-Powerbook! - Honda Pilot

Have you seen this? Scamming the Scanner - it's the funniest thing I've read in a long time. Allegedly true story of a guy who is selling a Powerbook and a scammer tries to take advantage of him, and he ends up turning the tables on him. The pictures of the P-P-P-Powerbook are hilarious!!!

I haven't seen this before. I read through it and it is very funny. Similar method as used in many scams to 'buy' a car from someone.

I doubt I would have as much patience to finish it up. I would hope that Ebay would have it, though.

I wonder if the guy selling the Powerbook, and sending the 'P-P-P-Powerbook', actually did anything unlawful in his attempt to scam the scammer?

I'm sure he did. Still pretty darn funny, though.
