Exclamation Scam WARNING

I just received an offer to sell my Cummins to someone in Nigeria. This looks like the same scam that tried to buy one of my Corvettes that I had listed on line last year. Seller BEWARE. The last time it proved to be a scam and I still have the bogas Bank Check that they sent as payment. When I called the bank, they stated that they got hit hard with these slime balls from overseas. First, they rip us off on our fuel, now they want to steal our trucks!
Below is a copy of the first letter of what will most likely be many more to come.
They must have got my email from the classified add I have in the TDR.
