I got an email from a guy claiming to be from Florida, though he was doing business in Canada at the time. He wanted me to send a laptop to his son, who was studying at the University of Ibadan as a visiting scholar from the London Metropolitan University. The style of writing was mediocre, but after years reading through BLOGS and online forums, I was not alarmed by the offensive prose (I suppose I've become accustomed to it). In any event, BidPay can electronically transfer funds to checking accounts and I would/will not ship until my bank confirms the transfer and I have the cash in hand, literally. Beware, people!
