Had an email from a guy called Anthony A. Smith wanting 2x $2500+ reclaimed wood tables custom made. Of course I immediately Googled him, email comes up associated with with a Dr Anthony A Smith MD who works at the Mayo clinic in Phoenix. I got super excited! It would have been a nice tidy profit for me. So his next email was about wanting the tables shipped to Argentina and that immediately raised a red flag with me. I asked him to call me which he did very promptly with a 202 area code, that's DC. It sounded like he was calling from inside a cave filled with chickens. I assume that was the internet cafe in Nigeria or where-the-fuck-ever-land. I told him I didn't think he was who he claimed to be and told him not to waste my fucking time.
My next email was as follows:
"Anthony, sorry for being so short with you on the phone. Please give me a call at
(513) 421-4310 and we can discuss your tables further. I would like to get this project underway ASAP."
That's the number for my local FBI Internet Fraud Division
In before Cool Starry Bra, etc.
