Obviously these people are at it again, the last post I saw was from 11/21/05. My email is dated 12/08/05 and is almost identical to Indianapolis, Indiana's. When I seen the email I came right to the consumer complaints, I knew it had to be a scam. Since my email was just a little different I'll post it below:

Whatever you do, DO NOT give them any personal information. I sent an email with just my email address to the "agent" questioning the validity of the offer and a link to the ukconsumercomplaints.com. No response yet. Tell others about this scam so no one falls prey to these con artists.
