    Default Suspicious email, oh no LOL

    So just got an email through an online sales site:
    "I want to express my interest in buying your gun, I pretty much like it,.I would love to buy it as a antiques and for my self protection. Do you still have the gun still available for sale?"

    All syntax, punctuation and spacing is as the email was written to me. Came with a gmail addy, which in and of itself doesn't really mean anything but add in the language issues and I think I'll pass on replying LOL.

    Oh, despite in bold letters stating emails without a phone number will be ignored, sheesh.

    I'll follow up if you guys chip in first.

    That's It ? I always reply to them.

    I inform them while that item of interest has been sold. Perhaps they would have an interest in a NEW PRODUCT not yet FDA approved
    that will increase their manhood 25%. No money is needed to purchase a sample (for a limited time) HOWEVER in order for me to send it. I do require a small payment to cover special delivery overnight charges on my end.
    IF they paypal me no later than 24 hours after receiving this e-mail. I would only charge them $14.95. But a small price to pay for such LARGE return.
    A scam you say!!.
    Kind Sir of most honest intentions. I guarantee such happiness will await your woman once you receive my product.
    IF you have any doubt. I'd be happy to send you pictures of the results I Too have been most blessed with. For that, only a paltry pittance of $13.95 will get you the proof you need.
