Soooo it's not off topic... but it doesn't really fit into any of the other forums either, but i figure maybe i'm looking for some "tips" so i'll put it in here, hah.
So I've been looking around at non-ppc phones (you know, just something else for my pockets) and the Nokia E70 caught my eye... but the price seemed a little rediculous... until i found a classified offer... but i don't really trust the offer so i bring it to the people that i do trust (all of you) for evaluation...

Seems a little rediculous to me.. so I contacted the person at the e-mail, sending the following message:
"Hello Sir,

The Nokia E70 cost $198.

We Accept payment through Western Union Money Transfer.
Awaits your urgent reply.

Qwam.."
sounds a little bit too good to believe... and the reply is in sort of broken english, isn't it? Anybody know anything about Western Union Money Transfer or had experience with this seller in the past?
I put this up also to warn anybody that it might be a little bit fishy... It's a mighty tempting offer.
Thanks for the post. I'll say right now, not to trust these guys. In fact I try almost everyday to delete these type of posts and ban the users as all they are tryin to do is scam people. I'd stay with trusted sources like eBay (alhtough i'd check their feedback rating as well), and maybe local sources like craigslist where you can meet in person to pick up the item.
