I think that's the same guy from Jamaica that's been emailing me for years trying to give me a million dollars. All he needs is my bank info so he can transfer funds.

If you go though kijji , ebay or many others lots of ads say " I do not need you to help me sell my car " which tells me it's a fairly common scam .

Hay Hillbilly, I lived in Hudson back in the 70's. All there was was a little General store and Green acres trailer park. I lived it the trailer park during the week while working in Springhill. My rent was $25 a month. I know now it's a big city.

"Give me your car and your title, and when I sell it I'll give you some of the money"
