Scam/Fraud Alert: Please be cautious of offers by individuals offering to send you a cashier's check or money order for more than the asking price of your item, and then have you send the balance back to them. The primary warning signs are e-mails sent with very poor grammar asking if you will consider shipping the item overseas. Banks will cash these counterfeit checks, but then hold you responsible for the funds when the check fails to clear.
