okay one more question: do you really think i’m that stupid?

If you’re going to try to scam me, don’t insult my intelligence while you’re at it.

A 3.3L V6 is only available for 175HP+ engines. Nobody sells engines that cheap, or doesn’t answer my question.

Next time when trying to scam someone, use a professional email.
Just a heads up, this has been reported to the RCMP for fraud.

Sincerely,
Tim Berninger

Yamaha vmax SHO 250HP Outboard Motor....$4000 USD ? And FREE SHIPPING!!!!

If it's too good to be true, it probably is.:rolleyes:
 
Google his phone number ;) Then ask him to throw in a few metric tons of scrap metal from his stash in Saudi Arabia and some cell phones from his 'Golden Age Phone Store'; unlocked phones only. Those are deals associated with that phone number.

Tell him you'll pay upon the guaranteed delivery time, money will be held in a secure account in Africa with your Nigerian lawyer who is handling your case for a long lost relative who left you $10 million. You'll pay an extra $1000 if it is on your doorstep in 72 hours. :p

He seems quite sincere....it must be ok.

FYI the country code on his phone # is England i believe
 
Mentioning God makes me all warm and fuzzy and ready to through away my money!
 
I bought two engines from them... they promised they would be here a month ago-- I wonder what the hold up is??????? :)
 
I thought I'd mess with him a little:

I sent him an email saying: I have been too soon to judge, I'm interested, as long as outboards is what you specialize in.



He replied: something along the lines of being a UK company, and specializing in outboards...

to which I then sent:


Okay, You’ve convinced me…

I’d Like to order one Yamaha F70LA with a 12x15 Prop. The Yamaha 704 Binnacle Control, Command Gauge, and Spedometer.
And while you’re at it, why don’t you include some of your other great offers, like where you specialize in copper scrap metal, or some of your great phone offers.
You should win the “Scammer with the lowest IQ” Award.


Don’t contact me again.

If he comes back.....tell him you are connected to TONS of HVAC and could supply him endlessly with used air conditioner and industrial motors as per his ad for his pile of metal in Saudi Arabia.

Man.....having time on one's hands is great for fawking with these guys.....LOVE IT!
 
I hope you had a special email address set up, because I suspect the address you used to contact him has been sold to every spammer he can find.:(
